Ecce homo

Pippo Delbono remembers his past: « I had become apathetic towards everything. Or, as my mom used to say, I had become a real bum. So I asked myself, what to do. And I decided to go and search for the bums. » But who are they? Are they like Angelo, the intellectual homeless? Like Armando, the paraplegic walking on crutches? Or like Puma, the singing hyperkinetic? But there’s also Gianluca with his Down’s syndrome, the melancholic young woman and the old microcephalic Bobo.  » …They all seemed happier to me. Maybe because they’d suffered more. Or at least they made me feel happier. And so I asked them for help. »
