Synopsis
In Troppo napoletano, a charming 2016 comedy, we dive into the colorful and often chaotic world of Neapolitan life through the eyes of Debora and her son Ciro. Following the tragic death of Debora's ex-husband, a beloved neomelodic singer, she fears that her young son may be struggling with grief. However, a visit to a child psychologist reveals a more innocent concern: Ciro is actually heartbroken over his feelings for his classmate, Ludovica. This unexpected twist sets the stage for a delightful exploration of childhood love and the bonds that form between unlikely allies.
As the story unfolds, the shy and awkward psychologist, Tommaso, becomes an unexpected mentor to Ciro, forging a pact that not only aims to help the young boy win Ludovica's heart but also offers Tommaso a chance to connect with Debora.

Themes of love, friendship, and the sometimes convoluted paths we take to find happiness resonate throughout the narrative, making it a relatable watch for anyone who has navigated the trials of love—whether as a child or an adult. Troppo napoletano is a playful reminder that even amidst the challenges of life, connection and affection can lead to unexpected joys.
