Plot
The Italian director of ‘'The Story of Frank and Nina'’, Paola Randi, transports us to a story where three wandering souls find friendship. Three young people “misunderstood” by those around them, each with their own reason, make up this comedy about friendship and adolescence.
Gollum is a mute teenager; however, he is the one who narrates the story of Frank and Nina. He does so through the voice provided by his writings that he paints on the walls of the city.
Frank does not want to follow a curriculum imposed by others. Thus, while he survives by selling the work done by others and dreams of escaping reality, he takes the first step by leaving school.
On the other side is Nina. A 16-year-old girl who, at that age, is already a mother. Like Frank, she longs for freedom. She desires independence, but unlike him, she does have the goal of finishing her studies.
Their stories come together when Nina hires Frank's services as a tutor. Class after class, meeting after meeting, secrets are shared and they begin to forge a connection that nourishes each other's dreams.
They discover their own fears and those of each other. There is nothing they keep from each other: desires, the intensity with which they want to chase their dreams. They know everything.
And Gollum? Gollum is always present. Together, the three of them form a story in which they rediscover the meaning of what it is to be family.
