synopsis

In a silent, grey suburb of Eastern Veneto, a group of twenty-seven-year-olds gathers to celebrate Christmas Eve over alcohol and in deserted nightclubs. During the evening, Niko meets Manuela, with whom he discovers a tender connection. Vigna and Giulio, determined to punish their friend for inviting the talkative Orso to dinner, devise a cruel prank to humiliate him in front of everyone during the Secret Santa.
