Flight modethe plot of the movie

Diego Gardini (Paolo Ruffini) is a wealthy entrepreneur, descended from a family of wine producers. He lives in a hotel suite and has the distinct ability to treat anyone badly come before him. He could be called an anaffective, too focused on himself to notice that arrogance is not the pass for a quiet life. Above all, it is he is unable to be a father.

The son Luca (Christian Monaldi) lives in a boarding school in Lugano. He desperately seeks contact with him, but is promptly rejected without even too many preambles. Even at Christmas. Gardini’s life changes shortly before boarding a flight to Sydney, when he has an altercation with the attendants of the bathrooms at Fiumicino airport, Ivano De Sanctis (Lillo Petrolo) and Sabino Lorusso (Dino Abbrescia).

Ivano asks him for a selfie for his wife Maria (Caterina Guzzanti)but Diego does not appreciate the initiative and, instead of lending himself, sends a message to the CEO to dismiss them. Coming out of the toilet, however, forget your cell phone on the sink. A tempting opportunity for Ivano and Sabino, who at that point decide to appropriate it. Thus began a double operation.

Paolo Ruffini is Diego Gardini

On one side, exploit the liquidity of Gardini to savor the thrill of wealth. On the other, they destroy his image, posting vitriolic tweets against anyone. Once he lands in Australia, Diego discovers that he is a victim of retaliation and tries to stem the avalanche of problems arising from the tweets in the sixteen hours of flight. With the complicity of Linda (Violante Placido)the stewardess he meets on the plane, manages to return to Italy, but nothing is the same as before.

The game started by the naive Ivano and Sabino passes into the hands of Diego’s cousin, Lorenzo (Luca Vecchi), who hatches a destructive plan. He is going to sell off the company to the Chinese, but first manage to get him fired. Without the company and penniless, Diego can count on the friendship of Ivano and Sabino. During his absence, the two have established a special relationship with Luca and it will be thanks to them that for the first time he will get close to his son.

That’s not all, why the three friends join forces to implement an impossible plan: save the company from being sold to Mr. Wang. Will they succeed in their enterprise? Above all, will Diego be able to write a new page, full of true feelings and not ephemeral goods?

In the cast also Sabrina Salerno

Paolo Ruffini gives life to a narcissist taken by himself, not very respectful of his neighborsuffering from an overflowing sense of omnipotence. Diego, in fact, is the embodiment of arrogance and selfishness. In one word: repellent. Who knows, however, that a good soul might not be hiding under that insensitive shell. Flight mode is the third film by Fausto Brizzi in which Ruffini takes part. In 2010 it was the turn of Males against females and the following year of the spin-off Females versus males.

In addition to the actors already mentioned, in the film an exceptional guest star appears: Sabrina Salerno. The singer is Ivano’s idol. The man is so infatuated with it that he has established with his wife Maria that, in the course of marriage, each of them has the right to a betrayal bonus. The of him is precisely the Salerno and the evening in which they know each other for De Sanctis the doors of the dream open.

Or so he thinks. Of course, he will have an unexpected experience, thanks to Diego’s credit cards. Random has it that Maria’s bonus is Gardini. They too will have an opportunity, but who knows if the dream will become reality or will it remain a fantasy.
