Bang Bang Baby

Despite the chewing gum commercial Alice sees on TV, she knows you can’t kill people popping bubbles. Alice Giammatteo, 16, lives in a quiet city in Veneto with her mother. Her life as a shy and awkward girl takes a turn when she finds out the father she once believed to be dead, Santo Maria, is actually alive and part of a criminal family.

Alice recalls her childhood with her father's family as if it was one of those happy American sitcom families… but was it? Santo, Alice's father, tasks her with disposing of the dead body of U' Damerino, but Nonna Lina, Alice's granmother, and the ruthless Ferraù cousins, are all looking for the deceased man.

Just like in the Bionic Woman, Alice dreams she’s getting an iron heart. Is that very heart the same as her father’s? Alice helps her father and he promises to help her face the shock of what she’s done for him. Nereo Ferraù and his cousin Assunta make a surprising discovery that puts Santo in a difficult position while simultaneously investigating the Damerino’s disappearance.

We are what we are, everyone must follow their destiny. Lassie’s destiny is to come home. Suspecting foul play in the disappearance of the Damerino, the ‘ndrangheta decides to verify Santo’s alibi. Santo once again asks for help from his daughter. Meanwhile, a sweet Collie named Lassie makes a macabre discovery…

Sometimes Alice’s life resembles Pacman’s. The main goal of both is to run and save themselves. Alice’s situation quickly get worse following the discovery of one of the Damerino’s arms, prompting Santo to tell her they must run away with Giuseppina. But his plan does not exactly work out, when Nereo and Assunta are on their tracks.

Bruce Banner or the Hulk? It’s time for Alice to decide who she wants to be… Santo has been left wounded by Nereo, and might not make it. However, despite finally seeing ther father's true colors, Alice decides to try to save his life. But with the looming menace of Nereo, who knows what will happen next.
