The event
«Un amore di peso» is directed by Marco Cavallaro, who also appears in the cast alongside Marco Maria Della Vecchia, Olimpia Alvino and Valentina Stredini. The theater presents social prejudice and physical differences as the thread running through the story.
The protagonist is Giorgio, who is in love with Lara, his strikingly beautiful employer. When Cupid has him fall for Clara, who is very different from Lara in build and social standing, Giorgio must choose between heeding the judgment of society and following his heart. With the help of his friend Mario, he faces jokes, comments and criticism in a world that rewards appearances.
