Volevo i pantaloni
In a small, deeply conservative Sicilian village, young Annetta realizes that only men are allowed to wear trousers—and with that privilege comes the freedom to make their own choices. Refusing to accept the submissive role expected of her, she rebels against her family's strict rules and the oppressive local customs. Her quest for independence soon sparks a fierce clash with a society determined to keep her in her place.
