It's a homework assignment, the teacher said. But it's a complicated assignment, if you think about it. It's also a little difficult, if you think about it more deeply. What does the assignment ask? Bring something special to school. Easy? Not at all. Better not to bring the usual things, the ones everyone has, the first ones that come to mind. It needs something special, and special it is! Giacomo would like to amaze everyone, but all his ideas don't achieve the desired result. But what is really special? Luigi Ballerini (Qualcosa di speciale, Il Castoro) asks us a simple question and leads us to find the answer, which goes beyond school, beyond home and city, it's a mysterious and beautiful answer. Because something special can hide where you least expect it. With him is Serena Piazza.
