[edit] Trivia

On the video, the name of the fictional bank is "Banca dei Fortunati" (in Italian it means "Bank of the Fortunate"). The name of the fictional bank director is "Benito Berlusconi", so it refers to the fascist dictator Benito Mussolini and the former Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi.

Melanie is depicted reading The Thief's Journal by Jean Genet.
