Piccolini TV, “Surprise”

The story opens on a young Italian girl and her mother as they stroll through Cortona’s piazza, landing at a quaint café where they stop for a bite to eat.

The head chef at the restaurant exchanges eye contact with the mother and then notices the young girl. He decides to prepare a plate of miniature farfalle pasta just for them.

The little girl is delighted to receive the dish and as she embraces the chef and exclaims “Papa! Ciao!”, the audience is surprised to realize he is actually her father.
