    FILM RESOURCE KIT 1991 PLOT SYNOPSIS p1 BIOGRAPHIES p3 FUN FACTS p5 INSIGHTS FROM THE FILMMAKERS p5 AWARDS p5 ONLINE RESOURCES p6 PLOT SYNOPSIS The film starts by telling the story of how the protagonist’s grandparents met and fell in love in Italy. His grandfather had won over his grandmother with a pot of his delicious mushroom risotto. Narrator/protagonist Ricardo Trogi, a 21-year old screenwriting student from Québec, is convinced that Marie-Ève Bernard is the “woman of his life”. She signs up to go on an exchange program to Perugia, Italy to learn Italian and asks him to come along. It appears as though they are dating, but it’s unclear how seriously she regards the relationship. Ricardo decides he wants to go, if only to prove his love for Marie-Ève, so he brings it up to his parent. They question his ability to fund such a trip on a student’s budget. He convinces them he won’t rely on them for any money, so they allow him to go. His sister notices he has a growing bald spot on the back of his head, which causes him great anxiety. His mother insists he carry all his valuable documents, money, and belongings in a grey fanny pack. During his stopover in France, he sees an ad for anti-balding hair spray which he purchases and puts in his ever-expanding fanny pack before urgently getting on a train to Italy. On a wine-fueled train ride to Milan, he encounters a carefree but odd travelling musician about his age named Arturo, coming from Brussels.
