THE REFEREE - (L'ARBITR0) - FESTIVAL PREMIERE - PANORAMA ITALIA - DIRECTOR IN ATTENDANCE - SPONSORED BY ARCODORO RISTORANTI
Synopsis:
This movie tells the story about a small Italian village-community, where
the people only care about three things: football, football, and more football
(and don’t call it soccer)! We follow two teams in the story, the good
team (which is bad), and the bad team (which is good). Parallel to the story
about the two teams fighting each other, we also follow an ambitious
referee, Arbitro Cruciani (Stefano Accorsi), who wants to be the head ref in
the championship league finals. But it is not such an easy path to success,
so he has to make some tough choices during the way, some which may or
may not lead him to the final glory.
