A portrait in the past and in the present of Turin which in 1961 was the scene of the international labor exhibition.

Roberto loves history, in particular WWII. His life has been marked by drugs, communities and prison, but also by movies and literature. For his thirtieth birthday, his brother gives him a slow journey, by train, to a destination that is off the beaten track.
