Senza Paura

Gian Maria and Marco, two boys from Rome's wealthy neighborhood, decide to rob a bank using a cutter because it isn't detected by the metal detector. They involve Antonio, the son of a tire dealer from the South, and Paola, who they caught pickpocketing a man, in the venture. After the success of the first robbery, which brings in eighty million, the boys get excited and decide to continue. The police have trouble identifying them because with their elegant way of moving they know how to blend in well with the bank customers. Everything goes well, but then Marco invites Manuela to a party after meeting her during a robbery. So Gian Maria, to avoid fatal mistakes, decides to commit an armed robbery.

Directed by Stefano Calvagna, Senza Paura leans on a strong ensemble — Stefano Calvagna, Alessio Boni, Vincenzo Monti — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about action titles of 2000.
