Youths
Two 20 year olds on the toughest day of their young lives. Matteo and his terrible plan: he wants to practice euthanasia on his mother who is terminally ill. Juliette and her big test: she has to decide whether to have an abortion or not. In this seemingly endless day, Matteo and Juliette meet each other, they get close to each other and they find themselves. Between them, they spark off their unstoppable "desire for truth" against the adult world which is made up of compromises and hypocrisy. Matteo and Juliette show the state of their souls "live" as if they were being followed by the camera...
