IIC CINE CLUB: Scontro di civiltà per un ascensore a Piazza Vittorio by Isotta Toso

Rome, Esquilino district. In a condominium in Piazza Vittorio, near the central station, there is a multi-ethnic community. The events of the multi-ethnic group, residing in the nineteenth-century building, are marked by profound cultural, religious differences and ways of understanding life. In everyday life the clash of civilizations emerges giving rise to misunderstandings, provocations and suspicions. In such a tense and difficult context the lives of characters very different from them are intertwined in a single story. The life paths of the various characters are marked by loneliness and the exaltation of differences. However, a murder breaks the condominium balance. Everyone could be the murderers, but only by putting the contrasts aside the protagonists will be able to unveil the mystery that lies behind the crime.
