1998112 min7.1 / 10

A nostalgic, bittersweet portrait of youthful rebellion and male friendship centered around a pirate radio station, told through the lens of its closing and the passage of time.

April 24, 1993: it's the last broadcast of Radiofreccia, an independent radio station closing after 18 years, barely one minute before coming of age. Bruno, one of its founders, begins to tell its story, the story of a group of friends—especially troubled Freccia's—and a period of their youth in their small hometown.
