Italiano medio
Directed by Maccio Capatonda
Produced by Medusa Film, Lotus Production
A darkly comic satire that uses a sci-fi premise to skewer both environmental obsession and human mediocrity, anchored by a marriage in crisis.
A committed environmentalist whose hyperfixation with everything that's wrong with the world is taking a toll on his marriage tries a pill that reduces human brain capacity from the usual 20% to a mere 2%. Which puts him on a par with your typical man on the street.
