Vincenzo, a former Italian blast furnace engineer whose foundry has been taken over by a Chinese company, is very worried because they have been sold a defective machine that once caused the death of a worker.
Now that they have discovered a way to repair it, Vincenzo immediately takes a flight to fix the problem. When you arrive in China you feel like a stranger in a strange land. His path crosses that of Liu Hua, a young performer.
Together they will undertake an odyssey through China to reach the factory and repair the machine.
Great performance by Sergio Castellito, one of the best European actors of this generation.
Presented in the Official Section of the Venice Film Festival
