Paola Cortellesi

When a teacher by day, holiday sorceress by night is kidnapped by a vengeful toymaker, her students set out on a mission to rescue her and Christmas.

Ten young adults flee plague-stricken Florence, sharing bawdy tales of love and destiny in this evocative take on The Decameron. From the legendary Taviani brothers, this story about storytelling is a paean to Italian history, art, and imagination.
