Basically it's the story of a man not joining the chorus, Nello, and of his impossible love for the woman of his dreams. Emotionally speaking he is a late teenager (35 years old), he never had a girlfriend and his father wants to find one for him. It could be a typical comedy setup, but Neri Marcorè gives out his best in his first _serious_ role. The consequence is a strange, a bit surreal, film.
IF you passed through love delusions or a terrible shyness during adolescence you'll love the movie. It has the power to make you remember those feelings, showing them as real as possible. Great acting from Neri and Giancarlo and from secondary characters, good job with casting! Simple but realistic setting and costumes make Il Cuore Altrove a snapshot of Italy of late twenties.
I propose this film to the fans of Punch-Drunk Love, it's another good example of how love can make impossible things happen.
