But also the bitter story that saw him fall victim to a stalker, a postal police officer, who for years threatened him anonymously, forcing him to leave Naples. "It's easier to score from the halfway line than to go over that incident again," said the 38-year-old striker Castellammare di Stabia of Sampdoria at the end of the screening. "The documentary makes you retrace the salient stages of his career and the story, it hurts you", added Quaglia, "I'm an introvert, and I was saddened not to have shared the joy of my former teammates like Leo (Bonucci) and others, because I was rarely involved, because I was dead inside. And I'm sorry for what my family went through."

The epilogue of the story, with the stalker being sentenced to 4 years and 8 months Raffaele Piccolo, coincided with the arrival in Genoa, at Sampdoria, of the player: "Sampdoria helped me rediscover my enthusiasm for the sport: my return to Genoa coincided with the end of this situation.

"At first when they approached me with the idea of ​​a documentary - Quagliarella said I was very skeptical because I didn't have the career of Totti, Del Piero, and others. But I had this peculiarity in my life. I find it hard to talk about it, reopening that chasm, because in that case you have to reopen it, you have to unravel everything."

The film in fact tells in parallel the Quagliarella's football career and the years of threats and slander against him with serious accusations against the attacker and his family up to the death threats, by the person who later turned out to be a police officer, definitively sentenced to 4 years and 8 months and arrested in 2019 who had 'stalkerized' for years the player, his family and his friends.

"I immediately said, then we'll see - Quagliarella admitted when faced with the idea of ​​a film about his story -. As time went by, I trusted the author and his entire crew. Then, little by little, my family and I opened up."

As well as former teammates Pirlo, De Silvestri, Soriano and Viviano. On stage too Leonardo Bonucci Quagliarella's roommate at Juventus for years.

"He was silent - Bonucci revealed when talking about Quagliarella -. Then I understood so much about those silences. Fabio is an example on and off the pitch. In his silences, he conveyed important values. But he was also the first to laugh and joke, a companion in life and in the locker room. Also important, thanks to his training against me, I improved. When we meet, he's a tough opponent because I'm not facing an opponent but a friend. This old man is simply too good at everything."
