How about we get a carbonara?

Since we’re little, we think about what we’d like to be when we grow up,

and maybe we never stop asking ourselves.

Sharks, sharks, sharks.

But the point isn’t the search,
it’s the choice.

And computers are better at it than we are.

But as an indecisive person, I risk
never choosing, and you know it, Prof.

So I came up with an app
that helps students choose.

University guidance
for high schools.

I know, I need a smarter name.

And does it work, Carati?

And you—what did you choose?

I still don’t know.

There he is!

Oh, what a pig!

Still, I’d do her too.

Me too! If only the car
weren’t my dad’s...

By the way,
take it easy—if it breaks, I’ll kill you.

Shut up.

So, Max—are you going for it?

I’m going for it.

No!

What about these guys?

Watch out!

Pig—
does your wife know where you go?

You should get paid too.

Go to hell!

Fuck—the barber’s got a gun!

Quick, Max, go!

A toast to Max, who for once
didn’t chicken out!

You’re assholes!

Why didn’t you say that
to the exam board too?

Guys, it’s over!

- Yeah!
- Fucking finals are over!

It’s over.

They asked me what I chose.

Max, don’t start, please.

What’s that?

His app.

If you follow all the steps,
it recommends the right major for you.

But don’t tell me—
it tries to guess.

Go.

Anna...

Anna will be a translator
and travel the whole world.

Andrea lifts bags of fertilizer
bigger than me

and will work on the family farm.

It says “Agriculture”!

Well, no shit!

I’m always working!

I’ll be lucky to scrape a 60.

Bea will study communications.

She’ll organize events
and find a really hot girlfriend.

How many times do I have to tell you
I like guys too!?

We could do a threesome—sound good?

Idiot!

And Filippo.

By day, a cardiac surgeon,
like his dad.

And at night, conquering clubs
with his music.

No comment from the rockstar?

I’m not going to med school.

And does your father know?

You, Max? What will you do?

Dunno. A huge, massive “dunno.”

Cut it out. You built
websites for every shop in town at fifteen.

You’ll do computer science or
something like it, right?

Yeah, but I don’t know if that’s what I want.

You could be a
mechanic like your dad.

Me?

Him? What’s he doing?!

Fuck you.

What’s with this fucking rush?

Choose. Choose now. Choose well.

The options suck.

The world’s a mess
and everyone pretends it isn’t.

Then they die, never having known
what they wanted to do with their lives.

Great. Bravo. To hell with it.

Filo?

Fuck off!

Fuck off!

Fuck off!

Fuck off!

What time is it?

- The same time as yesterday at this time.
- Come on, let me sleep.

You don’t want to stay in bed.

I took finals yesterday.
I’m not getting up today.

Anna stopped by, she was looking for you.

Aren’t you coming to help me at the shop?

Tomorrow, Dad. Don’t worry.

Fear and money—never had either...

My Pimpi, finished finals.

Enough with this “Pimpi”!

I’m going, I’m going.

Massimo Croati.

Yeah, but everyone calls me Max.

All right, Max—let’s use first names.

I’m Robert Price, the CEO of ePark,
a startup incubator.

Obviously, I’m an American
working in Italy.

So excuse my Italian.

I’m calling about your app.

You had a fantastic idea, Max.

- How old are you?
- Nineteen.

So is my son.

Yes, the other day

he was looking for information
about university

and he showed me your app.

Fantastic.

You can have three grand a month,

room and board, a personal driver
here in Rome, at our ePark.

Fuck, fuck, fuck!

You there, Max?

Yes, sorry.

When I’m nervous,
I tend to talk too much.

Great skill!

So, what do you say?
Everything will be taken care of.

You just have to get on the train.

A development slot just opened up

and we need to start immediately.

I’ll be honest, I have ten other proposals.

But I want you.

And I want you now.

- But “now” like…?
- Like Tuesday.

I’ll give you one day to decide.

The world won’t wait for you, Max.

- What’s wrong?
- Nothing.

How long are you going to take?

Wait, I’m letting
this wine breathe.

The venues are insane, look.

I’ve been meaning to ask you—
how do you recognize each other?

We make a pussy sign with our fingers.

Enough, guys.
I just want to see the Arctic Monkeys.

Main stage.
Look, this one’s awesome.

I can’t come.

Are you serious?

- Yeah, Filo.
- What an asshole!

We’ve been planning this for months.

We even have the concert tickets.

This is our trip, Max.

They want to develop my app.

They’re offering me a contract
if I leave for Rome on Tuesday.

I haven’t said yes yet,
but I have to hurry.

The world won’t wait for me.

Who fed you that crap?

Seriously, Filo—either me or someone else.

The world won’t wait for you, Pimpi.

If they offered you a record deal,
would you say no?

I’d turn it down for you guys.

Max,

you have to say yes.

And university?

I don’t know yet if I’ll go,
but I could do it in Rome.

Padua’s right nearby
and you have to go all the way to Rome?

I know you’re worried.

We just want you to be happy.

You’re the one who chooses.

We can tell you what we think,
but the decision is yours.

Right, love?

Yes, Alessandro, it’s always easy for you.

Good night.

Come on, Mom, I haven’t decided yet.

A degree is the license
I never got to take...

You understand?

But you’ve always been good
at this stuff,

since you were a kid.

Like me with engines.

Dreams are important, Max.

I’ll talk to your mom.
Don’t worry.

Grappa?

Anna and I have been hanging out for a while.

You’ll miss the taste of iron in Rome,
you know?

I don’t even know if I’m going.

- Liar.
- I swear, Anna, I don’t know what to do.

If we stay here,
we’ll never know what we missed.

We risk suffocating
without even realizing it.

We have to keep moving, like sharks.

They have to keep swimming
if they want to breathe. And so do we.

Go to Rome, Max, please.
Keep moving.

We’ll dance on the beach,
you won’t be in the photos,

but who cares?

Your future is more important, isn’t it?

But talk to Filo.

Because you know, for him it’s different.

You know how he gets sometimes.

It only happened once.

And a long time ago.

But Filo’s jealous.

He wants to be a rockstar,
but you’re the one going to Rome.

Are you ghosting me now?

I turned my phone off.

Because you don’t want to hear
that you’re an asshole?

I’d be happy if you left for Rome
to play. I’d encourage you.

So you decided?
You’re going to Rome? And you’re just ditching us?

Fuck, you’re jealous. Anna’s right.

Are you seeing her?

So now I can’t even talk to her
just because you had a crush on her?

Have fun in Rome, asshole.

- Yes?
- Max, it’s Price. So, are you with us?

Yes.

- Good morning.
- Hi.

I’m Gerry, your driver.

Nice to meet you.

Everything you brought fits in your laptop bag?

Oh fuck, my suitcase!

"Did you pack the toothpaste?
Did you pack the toothbrush?"

Of course, Mom,
but I left everything on the train.

- Then you’ll just buy it again. Come on.
- Yeah.

First time in Rome?

No one expects it to be this beautiful.

And you should see it once I take you to ePark.

And Price—what’s he like?

How would I know?

- But you work for him, don’t you?
- Sure.

It’s… I don’t remember how many,
but it’s been many years. Why?

Just wondering.

Can you not tell him
I left my suitcase?

Sure.

You’re tough as nails, Max.

Come on.

Welcome, Max.

Welcome to your new home.

Thanks!

No suitcase?

He left it on the train.

Don’t worry.

I’ve left a suitcase in Singapore,
one in New Delhi, one in New York.

Give your size to Gerry.
We’ll take care of it.

- You remember your size, right?
- Yeah, yeah.

What happened to your hand?

You should see the punching bag.

Massimo Corati.

Welcome.

This is your badge.

You’ll need it to access
all areas of ePark.

- Okay.
- And download the app.

In there you’ll find
all the information you need.

It’s a temporary pass, but...

I’m sure it’ll be permanent soon.

Let’s go meet
your new home.

It’s inspired by the Hackerspace
in Berlin, 1995.

The first co-working space ever.

But here we’re not hackers.

Here we’re devoted to the future.

We believe our work
will make the world a better place.

Where’s the punching bag?

I’ve got mine.

Train the body as you train the mind.

You can’t have stress inside you.

It confuses your choices.

Want to try?

I’m not very athletic.

I prefer computers.

I can show you.

They have eight minutes.

And we have to fall in love
with their idea.

Do I have to do it too?

You skipped this phase?

We loved your idea right away.

And what an idea, Max.

Sure, eight minutes is short.

This is the new generation
of the best minds.

They’ll manage.

Come on.

Let me introduce you to Genesis.

Our main server.

A data center
with two hundred thousand terabytes.

It runs every app,
the data and the algorithms we sell.

Holy shit.

Your app will be in there too, Max.

Today, enjoy ePark.

Tomorrow, meet your team.

And then we start.

Choose a new name for your app.

Okay.

- A good one!
- Okay.

You’re in the right place.

See those?

They’re the seven commandments of ePark.

Good thing I’m an atheist, Max.

I’m in the right place.

Hi.

Alberto Sardi, Head of IT.

I’m Lia Kelvink,
your social media manager.

From now on,
before you post anything, you talk to me.

Before you write online, you ask me.

Max, I’m Matteo Skavinski,
Head of Marketing.

Actually, before you even think a thought,
you ask me.

I’ll position your app in the market.

This is the map
of users’ desires.

I analyzed your algorithm,
identified the weak points.

We’ll work to optimize everything.

Can you show me your profile?

It’s a good base,
but it can be improved.

We have to plan “naturalness.”

But you’ve got potential.
You wouldn’t think it in person.

We can work with
that pretty face.

Together with Luca we’ll define...

We’ll define the mental journey
of each individual user.

I’m Luca Lombardo, visual designer.

Max, a quick favor...

Did you know your app’s graphics
don’t grab attention at all?

I’ll draft a social strategy
for tomorrow.

And we have to make sure
we capture everyone’s attention.

No one is excluded.

But did you delete half my photos?

I did you a favor. They were cringe.

Next time, don’t be late.

Hi, Max. I’m Miriam Torres,
ePark’s press office,

and your last appointment today.

Sorry, but it tastes weird.

We don’t eat meat here at ePark.

We need to take photos
for the press kit.

Better not to choke in the pictures,
what do you say?

Come on, try to look natural.

- You’re not going to delete my photos, right?
- No.

- Have you met Lia?
- Yes.

- Un poquito loca, no?
- Un poquito loca, yeah.

So why are you in Italy?

I went to university here
and I fell in love with Rome.

So I decided to stay.

Then I met Rob.

We were together for a while,
but he was married to an Italian woman.

In the end he split up with her
and with me too.

Did it hurt?

No.

No, because he’s married to ePark,
which is the idea of the future.

This is a great place, Max.
There’s a lot of money going around.

Rob knows what he’s doing.
He’s good at what he does.

Think of something
that genuinely makes you laugh, pesado!

That one’s good!

But I’ll leave you my number.

No, no need. With the app,
we’re all always connected.

But a number is better, right?

Max, you’re sweet. Really.

And funny.

Remember not to take yourself
too seriously.

At ePark you risk forgetting that.

- Max!
- Sorry.

Can I sample
some clips from the database?

Do you want to?

I’ve got ten interns who do that, Max.

Ten.

You and I only have to set the rules.

Max, if you want to survive here,
you need to understand who does what.

Clear?

Please, get informed.

Because if you mess up, it’s a mess.

And stay focused.

Because we have to deliver results
to Price.

And we can’t embarrass ourselves.

- Okay?
- You get it, right?

Price notices every detail.

Hey. It happens to everyone at first.
Relax.

Now, focus on the app’s name.

Anna, sorry,
I was working.

No, sorry—I panicked.
We couldn’t find Filippo.

Did you find him?

Yeah, on the beach.

I don’t think he’s okay, Max.

Come on, you’ll see it’ll get better.

Now have fun and down some cervezas
for me too.

Will do.

- Bye.
- Bye.

Why?

You can’t do that!

You can’t do that!

Jona, it’s already done.

Calm down, please!

How am I supposed to calm down?

Okay...

You know what?

Fuck this place

and fuck you!

Max, come here.

Jona was just leaving.

Yeah, good—I'm leaving.

I’m serious, I’m done.

Okay.

Okay my ass.

So, how’s it going?

Do you like the team?

Yeah, I guess.

I know it’s hard,
but you’ve met the minds of ePark.

They’ll support you.

You created a fantastic app

that helps young people find their way
in a changing world...

Now imagine it helps them choose...

everything.

Helping them choose a car,

buy a house,

decide who to vote for,
choose what to wear

and even the right job for them.

Just... helping them!

Helping them not to make
the wrong decisions.

That way we don’t have to...

decide consumers’ dreams ourselves.

We can create them.

Have you ever dreamed of being on TV?

TV?

Tomorrow you’re going on Next.

A very popular TV show.

- And what do I say?
- You talk a lot when you’re nervous.

Use it.

Show yourself for who you really are.

And you’ve won.

This is your contract.

The transfer
of intellectual property.

You don’t have to sign it immediately.

Talk it over with your parents.

The sooner you sign, the sooner you get paid.

Have you ever seen five zeros before?

In a phone number...

Okay.

Did you want to tell me something?

I came up with an idea
for the app’s name.

Okay, we’ll talk about it.

Gerry will be with you tomorrow.

Bye.

Did he leave?

Jona?

The kid?

What did you expect?

Remember that all guests
introduce themselves when they come in.

What should I put in the lower third?

Max, comma, app inventor.
Max, comma, startup founder.

Max, comma, still a virgin?

Before tomorrow, if you can.

- Max, comma, 19 years old.
- Okay.

Move it, you’re up!

Hi, I’m Max.

I’m 19 and I’ve never known
what I want to do with my life.

But I had an idea
that helps others choose.

You did it!

Lia posted your interview—

150,000 views in half an hour!

You sold yourself well, nice job.
Gerry has something for you.

See?

I think when I saw you
show up here without a suitcase,

I thought you’d last
a couple of days at most.

And instead?

But do you know Jona?

He was arguing with Price last night.

Max, so you still don’t get it?

Price doesn’t argue—either you’re with him,
or you’re out. Just like that.

Speaking of which...

Here.

Don’t lose it like you did your suitcase.

So, have you always wanted to be a driver?

Me?

I studied, you know.
I did three years of law school.

Then I quit.

I did about ten different jobs,
and I quit those too.

In the end, this one
paid the best.

You do it just for the money?

What else would I do it for?

If you were twenty today,

my app would have helped you
figure out what to do.

Max, when I was twenty,

I only had one thing on my mind.

What?

Pussy.

Okay.

And there’s nothing to laugh about.

Let’s go.

- Pussy?
- Pussy.

You missed a whole lot of chaos.

I was wasted
and I almost got into a fight

with a guy twice my size.

But Anna saved my ass
because by now she speaks perfect Spanish.

Bea found love.

At night they make such a racket in the room
that we’ll get kicked out of the hotel any minute.

And Filo is only playing
Arctic Monkeys covers.

So boring.

What about you?
We saw you on YouTube.

Man, what a story, Max.
You’re awesome—we miss you like crazy.

I’ve got it, I’ve got it. I’ve got it!

- I tried to hold him back, but...
- Compax!

From “Compass”—to have a compass,
something that guides them.

Good.

But you can do better.

But it means everything.

For those who can’t find a path,
a compass for the future.

It has to be catchy for the people with money.

It’s too simple.

Simple is better.

I think it’s awesome.

I even ran a test
with the phone sponsor.

They liked it right away too.

What? What did you do?

I thought it was a good idea
to speed things up, so I called them.

You weren’t authorized.

You’re out.

Sorry, it was just an informal test.

Lia, handle it.

Come on, Rob, let me talk.

You’re out!

Go!

Listen...

I’ll introduce you to a potential investor
tonight.

If he likes the name, we’ll keep it.

Show him the abstract for the sponsor.

Yeah, Lia and I created
your brand identity.

Exactly. First of all,
you’ll be the spokesperson

for a smartphone company,
so we can show you’re a visionary.

I just had a good idea
and a stroke of luck.

Investors don’t care about that.

They invest in the person.

In you, Max.

They have to make a sacrifice
that’s worth it.

For you!

So step up!

I heard about Luca.

Max.

Luca has a little kid,

he has a beautiful wife,

and above all, he has a life
outside of ePark.

And then, Max,

the important things in life are something else.

Hey, Max, hi. How are you?

This is Miguel Lopez.

The CFO of BMS,

an investment bank
specialized in start-ups.

So, good for you, right?

Max.

Sit down, sit down.

This is Massimo Coratti.

You’re so young, Max.

Want a drink?

So, tell me everything.

Yeah.

The app is very simple.

I created an algorithm
that interacts with users

and...

Come on.

Before coming here,

the most important thing to me
was the post-exams trip with my friends.

I care about them more than anything.

And then in the end I came here.

And choosing was hard.

No one really knows how to do it.

Or almost no one, right, Max?

In fact, I decided to call it Compax.

Because young people
need a compass.

What do you think?

Call me.

What’s with the long face, Max?

Come on.

Soon...

you’ll become Compax,
like Steve Jobs was Apple.

Luca won’t come back?

No.

Listen,

every day we have to make choices.

And it isn’t easy for me either, you know?

Look at your phone—take it out.

We’re in there.

We are our ideas.

We sell ourselves.

You are Compax

like I am ePark.

But you’re lucky, Max.

You’ll make so much money

you’ll never have to ask
for a loan in your entire life.

You’re like me.

Have fun now.

You’ve earned it.

In five minutes you’ve got the tournament.

The tournament?

Leadership training.

Price wants to see how you do
with your peers in person.

Me?

But who am I to tell other people
what they should do?

Do you think Zuckerberg asked himself that
when he invented Facebook?

If you use a finite number of digits
to represent a real number,

a computer will never be able
to represent correctly

numbers that are
repeating or irrational.

Stop the stopwatch.

Until an hour ago you were lying
on your couch at home.

But now you’re here,
with your future in front of you.

And trust me, this
is an ocean of possibilities.

But only if you know how to move like sharks.

That’s what we are,
that’s what we have to be.

Sharks that can glide
through a world that’s become unstable.

We’re not cruel—
we’re just hungry.

And we’re not impatient; we simply
can’t stay still.

So move,
because the future belongs to sharks.

Sharks.
Sharks. Sharks. Sharks.

Want to pull an ePark move with her?

Did you get the final Compax?

We need it for the press kit.

Want to grab a drink?

I have to finish—
my deadline’s in a few days.

A quick mojito—finish tomorrow.

- But why do they make mojitos here?
- Not here.

Come on, move your ass—
you haven’t seen anything of Rome yet.

Max, I saw you at the tournament
the other day and...

You saw?

Price was thrilled, Lopez too.

So the investment
and the sponsors are secured.

But are they all students here?

Yes.

You know, I miss dreaming,

but it doesn’t give me much anymore,

messing around and being together.

Work changes everything.

ePark will be my university.

Sorry, one second.

Got a light?

Sorry—sorry, guys. Sorry.

Hey, you remember?

We met at ePark.

Yeah, I remember.

- Are you following me?
- No.

- Then who sent you?
- No one.

Wanna take a hit with us?
Zero tobacco—everything natural.

Kind of like you.

Come on, join us.

-What’s your name?
-Max.

Tell me?

Why did you just leave like that the other day?

Look, Max,

there are two kinds of people.

Those who tell Price to go fuck himself

and those who kiss his...

Price’s ass.

He’s good at making people

like us feel important.

Truth is, he sells you a dream
and then screws you. So watch out.

You say that because you got fired?

You’re such a little puppy.

I thought...

But you don’t understand shit,
like everyone else.

Bye, handsome.

Max, come on.

Sit with us.

- Hi.
- Hi.

Anyway, like we were saying,

why choose philosophy

if not out of the desire
to never grow up?

In the end, only philosopher kids
keep asking questions about the world.

But kids can’t serve you
a Crispy McBacon.

And they don’t know Plato.

I’ve seen you somewhere before.

Do you study at Sapienza?

No, I work.

Nietzsche disapproves.

Exhausting yourself at work
comes from the pursuit of coarse pleasures.

Wait till he tells us
he’s even got a contract.

- I still have to sign it, though.
- What the fuck are you saying?

The unicorn!

Did Nietzsche ever say anything
about unicorns?

Wait. What’s your name?

- Max.
- Max Carati.

I’m Leo. I study philosophy
with her—she’s Noemi.

And he’s Lollo.

He doesn’t study philosophy with us,
but he’s kind of a genius.

He does crazy stuff with computers.

Like, he’s developing an app.

But don’t ask me anything,
I don’t understand shit.

He’s thinking of handing it to an incubator.

You just have to close your eyes
and not give a damn about what they do to us.

What do they do to us?

What do they do to us?
Lollo, tell him what they do to us.

But...

No way—you're Max Carati,
the guy with that rant on Next.

This blew up the internet.

This is insane. You have to give me your number.
Give me your number.

See, Max Carati...

Max.

Max!

Max.

- Hi, Laura.
- Hi.

You talk to him, Max. He listens to you.

I don’t know what to do anymore.

I can’t exactly send him to a psychologist
like when he was little.

There’d be nothing wrong with that.

Maybe you should push harder.

You tell Filippo.

And now my husband’s gotten involved too.
You know what Alfonso’s like.

He wants him to enroll in medicine.

He’s shut himself in there for a week, Max.

What am I supposed to do?

Pimpi! Look at you—
all dressed up to come see me.

You taking the risk?

Come to Rome. Write me a track
and we’ll show it to my boss.

And you’ll get these back when you come.

Get out of this fucking shack!

Max!

Hey, guys.

Did you rob an Armani store without me?
Same old asshole!

- I missed you guys.
- We missed you too.

This is Elisa, my girlfriend.

- Hi.
- Hi, Max.

I’ve heard about you the whole time.

You’re famous, right?

They do nothing but make out.

Because you’re jealous.

You—everything okay?

Yeah. You were right about everything.

I decided to travel around Europe
before studying languages.

Bea is enrolling in communications.

You were right.

And Andrea...

Andrea is staying on his dad’s farm,
shoveling shit.

I’m too much of a dumbass
to afford your dreams.

What’s your app called?

- Compax.
- Nice!

Sounds like a brand of sanitary pads.

You idiot!

You went to see Filo, right?

How is he?

Sometimes I feel guilty.

If I hadn’t left him,
maybe it wouldn’t have been so bad.

Depression over stuff like that
hits you, then it passes.

But I think Filo...

is just Filo.

He’s never been exactly... straight as an arrow.

Anyway, come on.

So you’re leaving in September?

Yeah. Why would I stay?

To become like my mom,
who’s never been on a plane?

And who won’t even go to Mass
without Lexotan?

Of course I’m leaving.

Besides, after this summer
everything will have changed.

You and I won’t be the same.

And I don’t want regrets
or “what ifs” anymore, Max.

Max, Max...

Alright, come on. It’s fine.
It’s fine, okay.

You taking the risk?

Give me five minutes.

That wasn’t you with Anna
outside the house last night, was it?

Don’t worry.
Mom didn’t see anything.

Why did you bring me here?

Max,

I’ve decided to close the shop.

No one comes anymore.

I was counting on
another ten years before retirement.

Instead I spent my whole life fixing engines
so other people could move.

And in the end, I’m the one who stopped.

You were right...

I should’ve advertised.

I told you dreams matter, right?

Well, I’ve got mine too.

I want to make a nice sport-fishing pond,

where that abandoned quarry is,
just past town.

It belongs to a friend, Rovelli—
I don’t know if you remember him.

I’ll find the capital, and then we split it fifty-fifty.

A serious operation.

On one side, pike-perch for amateurs,

and on the other we’ll raise
striped sea bass.

Fun to catch,
moody, combative.

Perfect for experienced guys like me.

The issue is the money.

The bank won’t give it to me.

- I’m sorry, Dad.
- Don’t be sorry!

I was thinking that maybe,

for our little business,
Rome could help us, right?

My boss invests,
but in technology, not in...

striped sea bass.

Striped?

Striped.

Yeah, alright.

Shall we try?

Let’s do it.

Not biting today, huh?

No.

Today they’re really not biting.

Anyway, Anna...

she’s a really good girl, Max.

Okay. Show me.

Why did you add this line?

I told you—we boosted it.

This thing here, this string—
I didn’t write it. What is it for?

It’s a storage directory.

And what data is this?

Max, don’t worry about it.
Let’s move on. It works better.

- I don’t get where it leads.
- Don’t worry about it.

Look, we’re about to launch it.
It’s going to go great.

So, are we ready?

Yes.

You’re about to see
the first graphic test for Compax.

Nice work, everyone.

What do you think?

I like it.

Rob. For the music,
I know you can do the jingle.

Okay.

Are you sure he can pull it off?

I’m sure. Max wants to win.

He’ll do it.

Good. Because we can’t lose.

- Damn, people here are intense.
- Yeah, I know.

How’d you get here?

- I took my dad’s car.
- You make up with him?

I said I took it,
not that I asked for it.

I won’t let my dad
decide what I do with my life.

Tomorrow we’ll pitch
your track to my boss.

And now?

Now you and me, Filo—
let’s take Rome.

Did you hear Anna’s leaving?

Yeah, she told me.

Were you together
when you came back up?

Why not? Was cacio e pepe not enough for you?

Yeah, yeah.

Of course it’s going to be hard
to watch her leave.

She’s the rhythm.
Without her, the notes don’t make sense.

- I’ve always envied you.
- Screw you!

No, seriously!

You’ve devoted so much time
to that guitar.

And it’s not just talent.

You’ve got to play a thousand wrong notes
before you find a chord progression that’s never existed.

You’ve got to pour your soul out
to write original lyrics.

I would’ve liked that too.

I had things to express,
but no talent to do it.

I never had the will to put in the effort.

Kind of like now—I don’t feel like
committing to anything, with anyone.

But you had courage.

And Anna thinks so too.

You know I think about it all the time.

Max, it’s not your fault, or his, or mine.

Once a guy told me
that if you stop, it’s over.

What a genius, that guy.

Actually he’s an asshole.
I saw him running dressed as a pig.

Good.

- You did a good job.
- Thanks.

Can you give us a second?

Nice.

Romantic.

But it’s not right for Compax.

It’s just a demo, it still needs arranging.

It’s amateur.

AI does it better.

He can redo it here.

- Yeah, let’s have him redo it.
- It won’t work.

The point is: stop!

Now go in there and tell him.

Why didn’t you tell him?

Because it’s your project.

So go clean up

your fucking mess!

Max.

Max!

What the fuck does he want? He’s doing it on purpose.

Not here!

Why didn’t you stand your ground?
It’s your project.

He said, “End of story.” What was I supposed to do?

Max, not everything that glitters is gold.

ePark is a nice place,

but you need to wake up
and see the other side of the coin too.

And I signed a non-disclosure agreement,
and I need my job.

Jona!

Do you know where I can find him?

And that one?

Untraceable phone.

I told you—with the other smartphone
we’re all always connected.

Even when we don’t want to be.

Hi.

Someone wants to talk to you.

Vale.

Hi.

Jona lives in Monti,
I’ll send you the address.

He knows Rob better than anyone.

Well, look who it is.

Are you here by chance, or are you following me?

What’s wrong with Price?

I found an unknown string
in my algorithm.

Fuck, I knew it.

- What?
- That string is Ethan.

Ethan Hunt.

- Tom Cruise.
- Huh?

Mission: Impossible.

- So?
- Nothing, it’s just my thing.

I brought my dad a crazy idea too.

An algorithm that talks
to users’ history,

boosted with AI, like...

Only he took it and did whatever he wanted with it,
without my permission.

We’re not just talking about
selling data to companies,

but giving them
the perfect consumer.

The indecisive kids from your shitty app—
what’s it called?

- Compax.
- Compax.

In Compax my father saw
the opportunity he’d been waiting for.

And put that phone away, I’m talking.

Sorry.

What my father’s offering is real.
He truly believed in it.

Unfortunately.

Is there a way to remove Ethan
from Compax?

Remove?

Yeah—is there a way?

There is a way, yes.

There’s an encrypted code
that’s used to destroy it,

but you can only generate it
from the master source—inside.

From the Genesi server?

The Genesi server.

Yeah, but it’s no use laughing.
It’s impossible to get in.

They’ll never let you.

Andre’, what do you want?

Pimpi! Look how nicely you dressed
to come see me here.

Don’t call me that.

- I know, I got it, Pimpi!
- Don’t call me Pimpi! Asshole!

You want to march around in here
for the rest of your life?

You don’t know shit.

You’re wasting your time
if you think you can sell me your app

and that it can fix
the mess in my head.

You know exactly what you want.
You’ve wanted to play since you were six.

- I want to play, yeah.
- Then do it, for fuck’s sake!

Do it!

Sign up for a talent show. Upload to YouTube.
Build your brand. But do something.

Get out of here and do it, damn it!

But do you even believe in that bullshit too?

You know I even believed it?

But who are we trying to kid?

Artists earn
a couple of pennies in royalties

while these guys make
a mountain of money.

I’d rather do what I love
and die in anonymity, Max.

I’m not selling out.

Look at you.

All designer labels.

Talking about brands and socials.

And shitty talent shows.

Who even are you?

I don’t want to live
with this anxiety every day.

I don’t know how to make it go away for you.

But I know that in this fucking world,
if you stop, it’s over.

Then I don’t want to live
in this world.

You take the risk.

Once a guy told me
that if you stop, it’s over.

What time’s your train?

In an hour.

Max, it’s not your fault, you know that, right?

When I was your age,

I didn’t think things
would move this fast.

I know it’s partly our fault too—
we’re leaving you a twisted world.

It’s not easy for you.

Always chasing the same thing
just to keep up with this madness.

But you should stop sometimes
and listen to what you’ve got in here.

So you don’t make our same mistakes.

Thank you.

I heard about Filippo.

I’m sorry, Max.

Let’s go for a walk, come on.

Look...

You still haven’t signed your contract.

That’s a problem.

Do you understand me?

Is everything okay for tomorrow’s speech?

So are we launching an app
that helps kids, or an app with Ethan,

that consumes them?

Now your app performs better.

Wasn’t it enough to ask them what they eat,
what they drink, what they dream?

They have to eat, drink, and dream
what you want.

How many people have you met
who really know what they want?

You and I are just helping them

make the best choice
for their future.

How much do you make off it?

You want to talk numbers?

Go ahead.

The data market?
It’s worth 330 billion.

It’s almost as big
as the arms market.

Compax doesn’t just make me rich.

It makes you rich too.

You even bypassed your own son
to do this.

Jona made his choice.

Now it’s your turn.

Who are you?

You’re not on social media.

It’s like you don’t exist.
Who the fuck are you?

It doesn’t matter who I am.

I’m just playing a different game
than everyone else.

Sign the fucking contract.

Are you here to apologize?

Me?

I just wanted to let you know
I went back to university.

You’re giving up all this?

It’ll be mine anyway.

Right?

And when it is,
I’ll do things differently.

Let’s hope so.

When I was little I wanted to become
just like you, Dad.

Everything I’ve done in my life,

I did to prove to you
how good I was.

At everything.

And the day you stole my idea
and changed it...

I was angry—I didn’t understand.

But today I thank you,
because I changed too.

You know what my dad used to say?

Sometimes you have to leave the people
you love to find your path.

What major?

Philosophy.

Wow.

The choices we make
lead us to where we are.

The road to follow
is unique for each of us.

Compax learns your tastes,
your passions, your desires

like a best friend.

And thanks to generative intelligence,
it always suggests the best solution.

How far you can go
by making the right choices.

Let Compax guide you.

Compax, define your future.

Compax can do
all this and more.

It’s like the loving guidance
of wise parents.

It helps the next generation make
the best choices for their future.

It’s made for young people...

by a young person.

Please welcome
Max Carati, 19 years old.

Now tell us, Max—
how did you come up with this idea?

Graduation
puts you in front of a choice.

And I realized I couldn’t make it.

So I created an algorithm
to help me...

And now this
algorithm is available to everyone.

But I was wrong.

No algorithm can replace us.

Compax helps you, but in the end
the choice is still ours.

And choices need
just one thing.

Time. Time to grow.

Now you know why you
invested in this kid, right?

Your children need time.

Rushing ruins the future.

One moment.

Leaving won’t change anything.

Compax will survive with or without you.

Are you sure?

Thank you for everything,
but I’m not like you.

Rob, it was nice while it lasted.

Nothing personal.

What is an algorithm? A sequence
of instructions that solves a problem.

Problem number one.

Encrypt Ethan forever
and stop him from interacting with Compax.

- Lorenzo Caschetto.
- Yeah. You can call me Lolo.

All right, Lolo.

Problem number two.
Make my father’s dream come true.

Because growing up sometimes
means telling a parent,

“Don’t be afraid of the dark,”

after spending your whole life
hearing him say it to you.

You had a magnificent idea.

How old are you?

Twenty-one.

My son is too.

Ever since we’re little, we think
about what we want to be when we grow up.

And maybe we never stop asking ourselves.

Choose—choose well, choose now.

Filo was right. That rush
we felt wasn’t ours.

I choose myself.

My friends, my ideas, my future.

Who cares about choosing?

I mean, I’m only nineteen.
