Everyone has their own chimera. For the band of tombaroli (thieves of ancient treasures and archaeological wonders), the chimera means the dream of easy wealth. For Arthur, it looks like Beniamina, the woman he lost. Arthur searches for her everywhere. On an adventurous journey between the living and the dead, celebrations and solitudes, the intertwined destinies of these characters unfold.

Le Pupille

A tale of innocence, greed, and fantasy. The Pupils is about desires, pure and selfish; about freedom and devotion; about the anarchy that can flower in the minds of girls within the confines of a strict religious boarding school at Christmas.
