Il Ladro di cardellini

2019 Italy

Film directed by Carlo Luglio that stars Pasquale Cardinale (Nando Paone), an aging forestry agent living in a small inland village in Campania, who spends his days between the drunkenness of alcohol and video-poker. Now up to his neck in debt, he agrees to go into "business" with a group of poachers who traffic goldfinches and homing pigeons, mostly making money through the use of the birds for parties such as communions and weddings. But their illegal trade is destined to be short-lived, and Pasquale himself will bear the brunt of it.
