L'OTTO NERO

Directed by Davide Maria Di Chiara

Facing an old billiard table, yet another game of "L'Otto Nero" between Gaetano, a quite disreputable individual, and "O'Masto", house and game master, gets charged with tension when the boss grandson Tonino starts recounting how his girlfriend’s family has recently experienced the murder of a relative. What could come across as a classic and lighthearted game of pool turns into something else, unveiling past grievances and long-buried suffering.
