Bianca come il latte, rossa come il sangue

Leo is a typical sixteen-year-old who loves chatting with friends, playing soccer, and riding his scooter, always accompanied by his iPod. School hours are torturous, and he finds teachers unbearable. However, when a new history and philosophy substitute teacher arrives, Leo’s cynicism fades. The teacher’s passion for life and encouraging students to pursue their dreams inspires Leo. He feels strong, but the color white terrifies him as it symbolizes loss in his life. His dream is Beatrice, whose red hair symbolizes love and passion. When Leo discovers Beatrice is ill, he must confront his fears and find the courage to continue believing in his dreams and something greater.
