2020 · 0h 10m
This sounds like a tender, unconventional film about childhood resilience in the face of serious illness—the kind of emotionally honest story that deserves your attention even without the buzz. If you're in the mood for something intimate and meaningful rather than a crowd-pleaser, give it a shot tonight.
Plot
A 10-year-old boy is in the car with his Roman and Romanist father. They are late because the derby is about to start, but first they have to go to a place. The child is dressed in a fluttering blue miniskirt and a cape like a superheroine. They arrive at the supposed show. Ettore begins to sing a song with female movements, but after a few bars, he is interrupted. He is not in school, but in a room of a pediatric hospital and in front of him there is a friend of his who is taken to the operating room.
