It’s an adaptation of journalist Tiziano Terzani and Folco Terzani’s best-selling book The End Is My Beginning, a posthumously published testimony from father to son.
Tiziano was a reporter in Southeast Asia for Der Spiegel and Corriere della Sera before retiring to a hut in Tuscany from 1990 until his death in 2004. His memoirs have been adapted for the big screen by Folco Tiziano and producer Ulrich Limmer (Schtonk!, The Hairdresser [+see also:
