Really enjoyed this film! As a lifetime builder of car models, it was fascinating to see and hear the story of Umberto, who seems to be the perfect humble and talented fit in what seems to me to be a dream job.

Enjoyed this film very much. Especially since I just visited Modena and Maranello including the Ferrari museum and Enzo’s birthplace less than two years ago.
