Costantino is a teenager struggling with what to do with his future. His friendship with Enea falters when he realises that he wants to take an opposite path from his friend’s.

Five boys live their lives hiding behind a mask of hatred and violence. Behind this facade, however, lies a great fragility crushed by the burden of always having to appear big and strong. The main character, Edo, however, has different origins and dreams from the rest of his group, and this begins to make him doubt his life choices. In fact, he himself will be the fuse that will bring down the big castle that he, along with his friends, have built. A journey into male identity animated by a deep and penetrating reflection on the hidden fragility of the individual, who dams up his own anxieties with a mask of masculinity and superiority.

Belonging Syndrome is a short documentary that follows Duang, a second-generation Italian-Thai girl, Duang, during a period of stay in a monastery. Through his inner diary, the film explores a suspended phase of life: the one in which identity it is not yet defined and belonging becomes an open question. The monastery becomes the physical and symbolic place where Duang observes herself. Immersed in a daily life marked by rituals, silences and repeated gestures, the protagonist goes through an experience of deep listening, in which time slows down and perception is refined. Belonging Syndrome talks about hybrid identities, cultural legacies that coexist without completely merging, the difficulty and possibility of inhabiting multiple worlds without having to choose just one. It is an intimate and contemplative story about the search for balance in a fragile and open phase of existence.
