KIDNAPPINGS BLACKMAIL AND A DOGHOUSE
Pierpaolo is a five year old boy. He was adopted by two fathers. The first, the french Maurice called Father One, died some years ago. Father Two, the italian Ianes, works as a General Director for Phonia Discount, a criminal organization that blackmails its customers, based on what they say on the phone. First a kidnapping happens, then a blackmail. Subsequently, other kidnappings and other blackmail will follow. Little Pierpaolo, with wit and strategic ability, will be able to manage the unfortunate situation and come out as the winner. Eventually, he will find also Father Three, a new parent. Known as "The Phone Brokeback Mountain" and "Pierpaolo, please, don't come home", this movie talks about privacy, difficulties of love and, most of all, respect regardless race and sexual orientation.
