Kryptonite! (La kryptonite nella borsa)

Peppino is 9 years old, wears big glasses for short-sightedness and when he plays football his friends make him act as goalpost. His mum Rosaria is so sweet and loves him, as does his dad Antonio, shame that he cheats on his mum with the shop girl from his shop in Portici. And then there is the austere granddad, the rigorous grandma and those two young uncle and aunt, Salvatore and Titina, in whose care he is left when his mum finds out about her husband’s affair and she "falls ill" with melancholy. Young aunt and uncle who reveal to him an unimaginable world of freedom and music. But strangest of all is cousin Gennaro, who thinks he’s superman.
