FIVE BOYS. THE MUSIC. THE SOCCER. THE LIFE.Emilio Santini is an Italian fan of the Beatles. He become passionate about the music of the Liverpool group, years after the breakup of the band. The Fab Four, become the parameter with which Emilio measures the things of life. Indeed, the relationship with time is a factor affecting him and his friends. Time is a killer because all of them - Archimede, Cobra, Taciturno, Bestemmia - do not follow the rhythm of existence.Theirs is the generation afflicted by the disease of Pete Best. Best was first Beatles drummer and was replaced on the eve of recording the first disc, (called Love me do), not far from the glory.This is the metaphor from which begins the story of five sceptical boys about life. The anecdotes of their adolescence are intertwined with facts from the Italian chronicle.One of this is the relationship with an old friend.Mr. Franzoni - the old friend - now is a prominent politician. The five boys feel a sense of resentment towards him because of some unresolved facts. Will the boys be able to take revenge on this journey back in time?"Nobody could be John, Paul, George or Ringo. We are all Pete Best and we had to settle for what was left ". Emilio Santini
