Une tempête médiatique suffirait à briser nos carrières respectives. Ce n'est cependant pas ce qui me préoccupe le plus.

Il primo Movimento di liberazione omosessuale italiano è stato il FUORI!, nato nel 1971, e la comunità e i suoi protagonisti a distanza di cinquant'anni si raccontano.

Di una cosa però è sicuro, vuole andarsene da Rozzano, percorrere in senso inverso i tre chilometri e mezzo di via dei Missaglia, lasciarsi alle spalle l'insignificanza e la marginalità.
