The De Gustibus festival of new dramaturgy returns, directed by Elisabetta Pozzi, with a selection of unpublished texts chosen through an international call. Tedesca, the winning text from the last edition, tells the story of three young Romans who play street football until the day one of them crosses a boundary that will lead him into an adult and violent world. Loosely inspired by the news story "The Monster of Quadraro", it is a dark fairy tale about the loss of innocence and the traumatic rupture of growing up, between pedophilia, adolescent loneliness and the simplicity of a game.
