Product description
Modena, 1899. The century of revolutions and great discoveries is about to end, while the city celebrates the patron saint with stalls, the scents of wine and cured meats. In the crowd, a newborn baby watches the world in his mother’s arms. Suddenly chaos: screams, people fleeing, and a vehicle never seen before advancing without horses. The father is driving. It is the first encounter with the car.
This is where the story of Enzo Ferrari’s youth begins, between family life, passions and first dreams. The path to adulthood is made up of discoveries, difficulties and important encounters, in an Italy crossed by profound changes.
Next to him move figures that mark his path: his mother, a determined and unconventional woman; his brother Dino; friends and loved ones that accompany the first steps towards the future.
In the background, a country in transformation, between cultural ferment and social tensions, until the arrival of the First World War. A story that follows the birth of a vocation and the first chapters of the story of one of the best-known names in motoring.
