The Punishment TEASER

NEW SUBMISSION TO ÉCU 2012 YOUTH CATEGORY

Synopsis: Alessio, caught by the headmaster painting a mural at school, tries to justify himself by saying he didn't realise he was actually inside the school as he was listening to rock music "... it gives him such a rush". As a punishment he has to clean the school toilets, listening to classical music...
Alessio realises that everything which happens in the school "sounds" different if seen from the point of view of the toilets and with different music: from episodes of bullying to what Chiara does everyday which is run to the toilets to vomit. Alessio wants to help the girl. The next day he makes sure she finds everything perfectly clean. When Chiara comes out from the bathroom the two exchange a smile and Alessio hands her his earphones for her to listen to some classical music... something between them has changed when we see them, smiling, in front of the mural which they have finished together, with a very special addition!
