Produktbeschreibung

Fredo and Luigi grew up in Valsesia, in northern Italy. Their father planted trees for them when they were born: for Luigi, a larch, which looks towards the sun and waves in the wind; for Fredo, a pine, which flourishes only in the shade.

Since the death of their father, all the two brothers have had in common is their heavy drinking and the old family home, high up on the mountain. Luigi would like to buy Fredo out, to start a new life with Betta and the baby girl they are expecting. But in this remote and testing landscape, one drink too many, one wrong word, can turn dogs into wolves.
