"Bambola" is a noir short film that analyzes the subject of borderline mental disorder and its extreme consequences.

Convict Umberto is allowed to work outside prison during daytime as a librarian. There he falls for a beautiful woman who mistakes him for a volunteer helping the inmates — however, like a modern-day Cinderella, every day he must leave and be back to his cell before midnight... will they manage to live happily ever after?

Through five stories, the film talks about the problems related to social networks and its use especially by young people.
