A man’s amusing & fantastical quest to become an Italian citizen.

David has all the paperwork in order, so how hard can it be? At the consulate he tackles a countless number of obstacles and tests to prove his Italianness.

Inspired by Bryan Mazzarello’s exaggerated stories about his life, the film follows David Mangano on his mission to get his Italian citizenship recognized by the consulate.

Pietro, an Italian consulate employee who always dots his I’s and crosses his T’s, begins the citizenship process with a comedic interrogation of David.

After passing the grilling, things take an odd turn as David is forced to prove his knowledge and passion for all things Italian. Is he up for the challenge? In bocca al lupo.
