A suggestive tale of chasing modernity and dollars, of business on one side and Hollywood and its stars on the other, from Charlie Chaplin and James Stewart up to today. Almost as a final touch, the image of a skyscraper of the BANK OF AMERICA emerges, the largest and most powerful bank in the world. The bank that once owned a small ruin among the Genoese mountains, an old stone rural house in Favale di Màlvaro, a simple and low-value house, but from whose humble foundations begins the story of the mighty Bank of America. An intriguing and surprising documentary that narrates an American entrepreneurial story, with Ligurian roots.
