Scaramucce

Every January, the entire Southern Italian town of Tricarico dresses up as cows and bulls to celebrate its Carnival, an ancient rite evoking the transhumance.

The eve of the Carnival, a group of long-time friends gathers together, as one last chance to celebrate their youth before stepping into adulthood.
