Buongiorno! It’s 1848 and the spirit of revolution echoes through the Italian Alps. Sixteen-year-old Joseph smuggles Ibex over the mountains to sell their cure-all horns. But he falls in love with the endangered animals he’s meant to kill. Meanwhile, his principled sister Petra becomes a reluctant leader of the peasant revolution. When she locks horns with a power-hungry politician, gay espionage, leaping mountain goats, and yodeling ensue.

Content Warning: Theatrical Violence, Mild Sexuality, Gunshot SFX
