Freely based on Dostoevsky's "The Brothers Karamazov", SQUALI is set in our days in the magical Lessinia Mountains in the north of Verona. Through a series of misfortunes, the four half-brothers Camaso find themselves as adults returning to the old father's home, Leone, a homunculus, thief and trickster. While hating each other, the Camaso's hate their father more, which prompts them to meditate on patricide.—Alberto Rizzi
