About this listen

The protagonist of this mini-story is a boy named Emmanuel, a handsome twenty-year-old who suddenly finds himself in financial difficulty and to cope with the emergency thinks of trying his hand at a career as a “part-time” model, despite his shyness and introversion; in this attempt he is encouraged by his faithful friends Carlos and Mayra.

As chance would have it, Emmanuel’s choice falls on Gianni Gandolfini, a rather well-known fashion photographer in the Milan area.

Gianni is immediately struck by the boy’s shy and particular beauty and makes him his favorite subject, launching him into the world of fashion.

Emmanuel, in turn, without realizing it, falls in love with the image of himself that the photographer reflects back to him like a mirror.

The story will soon take an unexpected turn.

  • Little Marmot - Part I (Already the end?)
    May 16 2025

    Photographer Gianni is launching twenty-year-old Emmanuel, in need of money, into the world of fashion, but something suddenly goes wrong in their relationship. The boy suddenly finds himself without any reference points in a world that is totally foreign to him, without any fault other than being a "little marmot", as Gianni affectionately calls him.

    The interpreters are Paul Emmanuel and Anthony (AI).

    During the episode you can listen to an instrumental version and a cover of "We Can Build A Fire" by Autoheart and of "You Do Something To Me" by Paul Weller.
