DIRECTOR'S NOTES:
The Story of Frank and Nina” is a coming-of-age novel for dreamers that comes from the desire to tell the story of my city: Milan. Because Milan is a city of dreamers. And the three protagonists are almost adults, searching for their place in the world, for freedom, for the affirmation of their uniqueness, for their way of living reality and relationships, for an anarchic love. The heroes of this story are the kids, their dreams and the city. A silent narrator, a revolutionary realist and an inveterate dreamer in a Milan caressed by the fog, distant as a desire, romantic and complex, hidden and irresistible, in pursuit of the future. La storia del Frank e della Nina is the story of three kids fighting against reality.
