I Can Quit Whenever I Want


I Can Quit Whenever I Want is a 2014 Italian crime comedy film directed by Sydney Sibilia. It was followed by two sequels, subtitled Masterclass and Ad Honorem, both released in 2017.

Plot

Pietro Zinni, a brilliant neurobiologist, loses his job at the university because of the financial crisis. Without any reasonable chance to find another contract, Pietro assembles a team of ex-researchers like him—a chemist, a cultural anthropologist, an economist, an archaeologist, and two Latin scholars—to produce a little-known smart drug that is not yet illegal under Italian law. The gang achieves immediate and unexpected success but is unprepared for the problematic lifestyle that comes with such sudden wealth.
