Different From Whom screening at 2011 Stella Artois QFest
A charming and timely Italian comedy, "Different From Whom?" stars three of Italy's top film stars in a story about a gay man whose life is complicated when he runs for office in a right-wing town. Gay-rights activist Piero (Italian sex symbol Luca Argentero) is set up as a stalking horse to help sway votes in a mayoral pre-selection, but when the party frontrunner drops dead, he's suddenly in the running for mayor. Whereas the incumbent conservative mayor builds walls to stop crime, Piero is more interested in building community for gays and lesbians, in particular and that approach makes his political party nervous. To add some balance to the ticket, they pair him with a conservative, family-focused running mate, the beautiful Adele (Claudia Gerini), with whom he has always argued. Unexpectedly, opposites begin to attract and a hysterical love triangle develops, threatening both Piero's career ambitions and his long-term relationship with Remo (Filippo Nigro). Punctuated by bouncy R&B tunes, "Different From Whom?" is a delightful farce about modern sexuality, desire, and politics in and out of the bedroom.
