The Contestant

Francesca, a freelance gym teacher, lives alone with her three sons in Sardinia. She's a woman, a mother, a worker who struggles every day to survive. And she's my aunt. The economical crisis goes on, and her efforts now don't seem to be enough to maintain the life status that she desires for her and her children. That's how she decides to take a chance and enter in a TV quiz show... How her dreams to change her life situation manage to coexist with her everyday struggles?

Director: Alberto Diana
