Talking to Control

Italy, a few minutes into the future. Hera is linked to the neural global communication system known as “Control” that dominates the behavior of all the world population. The girl manages to free herself and to create a communication circuit isolated from control with her partner Aphrodite, but Dr. Routine, an agent of Control, takes action to eliminate this anomaly: however Hera manages to link Dr. Routine to the closed circuit put together by Aphrodite and her, a premise of a possible revolution and of the end of Control.

I Wanted a War

Milan, Italy, now. Ray is at his favorite bar, where he waits for his friends, Scarpa and Il Divo. Ray is celebrating his 70th birthday, but the bartender – as anyone else in the world – does not care at all. Scarpa and Il Divo – both 70 years old – arrive. They have a special present for Ray. And a plan. The present is a gun, the plan is to go to Rome and achieve something epic, something everybody will talk about.
