Mani Nude, Mauro Mancini's new film, premiered at the 19th Rome Film Festival in the Grand Public section. Starring Alessandro Gassmann, Francesco Gheghi and an outstanding cast, including Fotinì Peluso and Renato Carpentieri, the film is based on the novel by Paola Barbato.

The story follows Davide, a young man kidnapped and forced to fight in a world of underground fighting, led by Minuto, a hopeless jailer. Produced by Eagle Pictures, Pepito Produzioni and Rai Cinema.
Mani Nude is the story of Davide and Minuto: a story rooted in the most perturbing fears and feelings of a man and a boy, both victims of a destiny greater than themselves, prompting inevitable reflection on how multifaceted and at times incomprehensible human nature is.
