Antonio has something wrong with him. These little problems make it difficult for him to attract girls.
For example, when facing this girl with pure Mediterranean beauty, what he was thinking about was how to put the sugar cubes on the coffee table into his pocket.
Twenty years have passed since the war, and Somalia no longer belongs to Italy, nor to Britain. But Antonio still can't help but have those dirty thoughts, such as buying a bag of oranges and taking away an apple, or licking the ketchup off other people's plates.
When Antonio was eight years old, he became a prisoner in the Horn of Africa. The prisoner of war camp was a giant rat's nest where everyone lived by stealing food.
"We just lost the battle, not lost. We just handed Somalia back to its mother."
The father who said this stayed in Asmara forever.
After returning to his hometown, Antonio gradually realized that his father had deceived him.
"Rome, which benefits the world, has always had two suns, illuminating two paths respectively, the earthly path and the path of God."
And where the sun doesn't shine, there is a third path, leading to Africa, symbolizing greed.
In Somalia, people need to lie to survive.
