Palio

Twice a year, the Italian city of Siena crazy about the oldest horse race in the world: the Palio. The strategy, bribery and corruption play such an important part as the skill of the pilots or the ability of horses. These are assigned by lot four days before the race. And that's when the madness really begins. Loved and hated in equal measure by those they represent, riders forge alliances and make deals to try to get the best possible career start. This is a passionate, dramatic an epic battle and cinematic tale of Italian life in microcosm.
