Synopsis
One day, from nowhere, a video appears on Youtube that changes the history of music. That day the world discovered that the inventor of tapping, a revolutionary guitar technique, was not the great Eddie Van Halen, but a provincial doctor: Vittorio Camardese.
Since then, the greatest musicians from all over the world have wanted to know more. "Who is this unknown colleague? Who is Vittorio Camardese?".
This is the story of Vittorio, the story of a genius who chose not to be a genius.
Vittorio Camardese is an invisible of great presence. A man whose memory is in danger of being lost, but who instead can tell so much about music, the responsibility of talent, the fear of success, but also about Italy and the roots that keep him anchored to the ground instead of pushing him to take flight and grow far away.
