Sergio lives in the Bosco Grande neighborhood of Palermo. A punk musician turned tattoo artist, he holds a salon on the sidewalk in front of his shop, where he’s joined by his lifelong friends and Mariella, his girlfriend. Over the years, his plump adolescent body has taken on worrying proportions, his flesh bulging everywhere in a state of morbid obesity.
