Postino
Based on true events of the late 60s in Italy, poet, playwright and myrmecologist Aldo Braibanti is prosecuted and sentenced to prison for the love he shares with his barely-of-age pupil and friend, Ettore. Amidst a chorus of voices of accusers, supporters and a largely hypocritical public, a single committed journalist takes on the task of piecing together the truth, between secrecy and desire, facing suspicion and censorship in the process.
Perennial university student Eva, who's still having difficulties at adjusting to big city life, takes up a job as dog sitter. After visiting its owner, she finds out the dog—Spotty—is actually Matteo, an introverted young man who copes with modern life by dressing up as a giant puppy. Although initially taken aback by Spotty's true nature, Eva still accepts the job. Over the weeks, something unlikely begins to blossom between the two of them.
