He only has an hour, poor idiot, to look after his brother who is hospitalized due to an illness whose name he has no intention of saying. An hour in which, everyday, he tells his mother to go to Mass and he doesn't do it on time.
Gildo is slightly retarded, someone who has never hurt anyone despite being capable of sudden violence against the nurses and nuns who don't want to wash or touch his brother, his “little brother”.
Gildo washes his naked brother, it cleanses him of sins that he neither understands nor knows, and stains, those very inappropriate stains on that much loved body, they seem to Gildo (what name!) clouds in the sky from which to extrapolate the vision of fantastic shapes. Spots like clouds to pass the time, the uncertain future. Memories and stories to steal the hours and days from Death. But today is a special day: Gildo brought some medicine with him; “the” medicine. The medicine that… Guild. Poor idiot.
Fratellini is a written text, starring and directed by Francesco Silvestri.
