PLOT : What really happens inside our minds during a first date? FolleMente follows Piero and Lara as they meet for dinner, navigating the awkward excitement and uncertainty of getting to know someone new. Beneath their polite conversation, however, a lively debate unfolds inside their minds, where different aspects of their personalities (reason, impulse, insecurity, and desire) argue over what they should say or do next. As the evening progresses, these inner voices clash, collaborate, and sabotage one another, revealing the complexity of human emotions. Through humor and sharp observation, the film explores love, vulnerability, and the chaotic inner dialogue that shapes our romantic decisions.
Paolo Genovese. An acclaimed Italian director and screenwriter known for his clever, character driven comedies that explore human relationships. He achieved international success with Perfect Strangers (Perfetti sconosciuti, 2016), one of the most remade films in cinema history, praised for its witty examination of secrets and modern communication. Genovese has built a reputation for blending humor with emotional insight, often experimenting with narrative structure to reveal the complexities of everyday life. With FolleMente, he returns to the theme of intimacy and communication, creating a playful yet thoughtful romantic comedy that visualizes the inner voices guiding our choices in love.
