A portrait of Nichi Vendola, the candidate for president of the Region of Apulia. 150 municipalities in 33 days. One piazza after another, thousands of well-wishes, handshakes, kisses. Long, exhausting car trips, with bodyguards, throughout Apulia. The tension, the emotions and the fatigue of an election campaign which seemed doomed to failure. Corso
