Pur di rivederla e scappare dalla sua vita, il ragazzo decide di partire alla volta degli Stati Uniti. Ma Sally non è molto contenta di vederlo anche se la sua famiglia lo accoglie calorosamente. Dopo una serie di avventure Tanino si renderà conto che l'America non è esattamente come l'aveva sognata.

My Name Is Tanino (2003)
109 min
During a sun-soaked Sicilian summer, aimless filmmaking undergrad and back-seat radical Tanino has a fling with Sally, a dreamy American tourist from an upper background. When summer ends, Sally flies back home, without ever reaching out. Clueless, a smitten Tanino decides to pay her a surprise visit under the pretense of returning a camera she left behind. But when he gets there, he quickly realizes the reality of America—and his relationship with Sally's—is far from the idealized version his small-town boy imagination conjured.
