THE PODCAST IS CLOSED FOR THE SUMMER HOLIDAYS, BUT WILL REMAIN AVAILABLE TO LISTENERS. The protagonist of this mini-story is a boy named Emmanuel, a handsome twenty-year-old who suddenly finds himself in financial difficulty and to cope with the emergency thinks of trying his hand at a career as a “part-time” model, despite his shyness and introversion; in this attempt he is encouraged by his faithful friends Carlos and Mayra. As chance would have it, Emmanuel’s choice falls on Gianni Gandolfini, a rather well-known fashion photographer in the Milan area. Gianni is immediately struck by the boy’s shy and particular beauty and makes him his favorite subject, launching him into the world of fashion. Emmanuel, in turn, without realizing it, falls in love with the image of himself that the photographer reflects back to him like a mirror. The story will soon take an unexpected turn. Hosted on
