The(ir) Blurb...

Sergio is a barber who works in a little suburban shop in Milan. His shop is insignificant, a photo hanging in the corner pictures him with his wife, but he doesn't smile. The shop is quite empty and customers are always the same middle-aged men of the neighborhood. Frustrated by his life Sergio prefers hiding in dreams, in which he is a successful hair stylist. He is satisfied with his job, highlights, fashionable haircuts, extensions, everyday is a challenge, he tests himself with boldness and determination. He's self confident and smart,always able to satisfy customers' expectations,they get into the shop feeling ugly and go out feeling like a million bucks. But the sound of the door of the shop opening tears him out of his dreams. It's just another neighborhood man who wants a trim.
