Cocapop (2010)
Plot Summary:
An apartment on one of Rome's seven hills turns into a film studio for shooting three different stories about cocaine. The story takes place in a circular time-frame, in which each character could be living or could have lived the life of the others, and embraces three generations, from ages 20 to 70. Cocaine is often associated with action movies, reports, or documentaries; here it is analyzed in its aspect of total solitude, the private relationship with the user, for whom the drug often becomes a secret lover who monopolizes the user's social life, without interrupting it. The events are triggered, then play out and get hopelessly entangled inside the family itself, which becomes a war zone. Behind the facade of their "routines", fragile souls are revealed who struggle with their own fears and try to cope with that "psychological void" that prompted contact with the drug in the first place, and which the drug itself fuels, dangling the illusion.
