==Plot==
Pietro Zinni, a brilliant neurobiologist, loses his job at the university because of the economic crisis. Without any reasonable chance to find another contract, Pietro is forced by the situation to put together an unlikely criminal gang of moneyless nerdy ex university's researchers like him (a chemist, a cultural anthropologist, an economist, an archeologist and a couple of Latinist) to create a special smart drug, still unknown and not illegal by Italian law. The success is immediate and unexpected, but Pietro and his friends have to manage something they are not used to: money, much money, probably too much for a bunch of bookworms.
