Before the War (2026)

In a quiet corner of Northern Italy, a young man named Guido, still in his early twenties, commands a hard-earned authority—forged not through charm, but through the brutal, unspoken codes of the racist and hyper-masculine streets that raised him. His reputation is a shield, built on aggression in a world that worships dominance. Yet everything unravels when Sonia walks into his life. A Kosovar immigrant with a quiet strength of her own, she becomes a mirror to everything he’s never questioned. Now, Guido stands at a crossroads: cling to the toxic legacy that defined him, or step into the unfamiliar, liberating light she offers. It’s a raw, emotional tug-of-war between the man he was raised to be and the man he could become.
