Daniele Isabettini proudly holds the title of Italy’s ugliest person. This dubious distinction is awarded every year in the small town of Piobbico at a festive event. Here, people don't care about the world-wide beauty craze - ugliness is celebrated. The members of the "Club dei Brutti" - the Association of Ugly People - believe in inner beauty and stand up for anyone who feels excluded.
