It is an afternoon at the end of the school year, and Lorenzo and his friends gather at the Ughetto Forno bridge for a quick game of football. A blow to the head catapults Lorenzo back to June 5, 1944, making him experience firsthand what Ughetto Forno lived through. Upon waking, Lorenzo is a changed boy, deeply aware of the heroic deed performed many years ago by that Roman kid just like him. Today, standing face to face with the mural dedicated to Ughetto, he also feels a bit like a hero.
