“A simple question”. Alessandro Cattelan’s docu-show is available on Netflix from Friday 18 March, who in six episodes tries to answer the question of his little daughter Nina: “Dad, how can you be happy?”. With the help of some travel companions: the director Paolo Sorrentino, the singer Elio, the comedians Francesco Mandelli and Geppi Cucciari, the former footballers Roberto Baggio and Gianluca Vialli.
With the latter he also addresses the issues of pain, illness and death: “Knowing that you have a deadline, which does not coincide with the natural one, gives you an advantage over the life you have left”, explains Vialli.
Instead the Divin Codino talks about religion and Buddhism: “Happiness is within us. What do I miss about football? Playing. Even if at my last match I thought: luckily, it’s over!”, Says Baggio.
Cattelan comments: “They were special moments with two idols of all time. Luca is a friend, I’ve never met Robi because Baggio doesn’t meet, he minds his own business among the duck molds he collects. This is exactly what he taught me: the value of confidentiality. As for Luca, the illness has given him an emotional depth out of the ordinary, who is really intelligent. Listening to Vialli forces you to reflect on yourself, because death affects everyone “.
Speaking of diseases, the rapper Fedez announced with shining eyes on Instagram: “Unfortunately I was found a health problem, fortunately with great timing, which involves an important path. I feel like telling it in the future because when I found out it gave me comfort to read other people’s stories, but not now. Right now I need to huddle around my family. “A couple of years ago Fedez himself confessed:” I found something called ‘demyelination’ in my head, are at risk of multiple sclerosis “.

An Nerazzurri fan, Cattalen says that “happiness is also an Inter goal. The birth of my daughters is the most important thing in my life, but the peak of happiness at the goal War in the Champions League final won in Madrid against Bayern Munich in 2020 … The rush of emotions that football can give you is unique and special. It is a pleasure to watch this Inter, I had never seen it play so well, not even at the time of the Treble with Mourinho were we so beautiful. Spalletti laid the foundations, Conte built solid walls and now Simone Inzaghi does the finishing touches and embellishes: it drives me crazy. Unfortunately we complicated our way by losing the derby, the scar on the canvas. I’m a fan of Pioli, ma I can’t explain Milan’s first place in the standings: it’s a good team, but qualitatively inferior to many. Despite Ibrahimovic, who puts an absurd psychological pressure on his opponents even when he doesn’t take the field: I don’t dare to think what a defender feels when he finds him in front of him. Almost almost I fear Juve more, then for the Scudetto there is also Napoli. I lose my head for Barella, the footballer of my heart. Brozovic is the craziest of all, I’m waiting for the renewal of his contract also because he can’t be separated from Barella, they look like Stanlio and Ollio. Then I love D’Ambrosio and Ranocchia, I like Dumfries’ nice face. Lukaku made the difference in Italy and without him we lost a lot, if Dzeko and Lautaro always playit is normal for them to have drops “.
Then Cattelan presents himself incognito as a competitor at the X Factor Hungary auditions, where he brings his own unreleased song using Elio’s advice.
Saturday 14 May Cattelan will lead the Eurovision Song Contest final in Turin together with Mika and Laura Pausini: “There will be a lot of Italy, Achille Lauro for San Marino and obviously Mahmood and Blanco for us. Their power is similar to that of the Maneskin, is what we call the x factor and that goes beyond talent. Blanco has fiery eyes, just like Damiano … We can’t fail to qualify for the World Cup again, but I’m shitting myself. A masterpiece was done at the European Championship, now anything can happen and I hope Mancio’s team spirit comes out. Will Ukraine be in Eurovision and not Russia? I don’t feel up to tackling a topic of this magnitude. The whole world is talking about it, what can I say so profound in a situation like this? Peace is a priority, there are many questions and I don’t have the answers in my pocket “.
