Short description

A university researcher is fired because of the cuts to university. To earn a living he decides to produce drugs recruiting his former colleagues, who despite their skills are living at the margins of society.

What's left behind the scenes

It all started with an article in a magazine that happened to catch Sydney Sibilla’s eye. It told of two philosophy graduates who worked cleaning the streets of Rome and, between washing the sidewalks, enjoyed discussing Kant’s “Critique of Pure Reason.”
Pietro Zinni’s gang consisted of a neurobiologist, an archaeologist, a linguistic semiotician, a specialist in epigraphic Latin texts, an anthropologist, a specialist in dynamic macroeconomics, and a chemist.
The creators were inspired by the classic comedy “The Usual Suspects” by Mario Monicelli, as well as “The Big Bang Theory” and “Breaking Bad.”
The chemical formula of the substance is MDMA. This is methylenedioxymethamphetamine, which is prohibited in Italy.
