Enrico Ghezzi, a critic and curator, created Fuori Orario and showed enough films to change the life of generations. Another side of his passion is being the man with a movie camera. This film is an autobiographical mosaic, which consists of encounters with the directors who matter to him (Straub-Huillet, Amir Naderi, Bertolucci), the films he loves (be it by Anthony Mann or Carmelo Bene), and the private home-videos of being a father. How to find life in cinema and to discover cinema in life? Humanity may be living its last days, but it needs such a film in order not to forget how to recognize beauty.
