To keep up with youth in the lagoons of Venice, you need to get on a fast speedboat. Away from the picture-
postcard landscape of canals and gondolas lies a parallel world whose pace is frantic yet monotonous. Instead of
cars, there are boats — the goal is to go faster than the others or to charm a girl. Ancarni further develops his
unique handwriting, in which plot, sensitive observation, and the exceptional geometric quality of individual
scenes are not everything. The story of its kind becomes the very transformation of the narrative form in the
course of the film, opening up unexpected corners of our imagination.
