Tell No One (Italian:"Come non detto",As not said) is a 2012 Italiancomedy film, directed byIvan Silvestrini.[1][2] It is based on a novel with the same title written by Roberto Proia.[3]
Mattia is a homosexual guy fromRome, the lover of a young Spanish student named Eduard. He cannot tell his parents about his love affair, because of their very conservative opinions and the particular situation inRome - everyone Mattia meets in the city hatesgay people, and condemns them as unclean beings.
Mattia plans to secretly run away with Eduard while telling his parents that he intends to leaveItaly in order to find work. Mattia's plan seems to work, but the troubles begin when he discovers that Eduard is coming to Italy in order to meet Mattia's parents. Given the relative liberal attitudes inSpain towardsgay people, Eduard thinks that Mattia has already told his parents and his environment. Mattia tries to get along with everyone for a while, but in the end is forced to reveal his homosexuality to his parents, who understand him.
Finally, Mattia can fulfill his need for love by going to Spain with Eduard.
