Open Roads: New Italian Cinema 2015
June 4 - 11, 2015
North American Premiere
An unpopular 13-year-old boy suddenly discovers he has the ability to become invisible, and gets pulled into a new world of mystery, intrigue, and responsibility in this superhero fantasy from Gabriele Salvatores (I’m Not Scared) that harkens back to adventure classics of the 1980s.
North American Premiere
Veteran director Gabriele Salvatores (I’m Not Scared) uses the superhero genre as a jumping-off point to reach the greater truths of adolescence, harkening back to 1980s adventure classics like The Goonies. Michele (Ludovico Girardello), who lives with his single mother (the superb Valeria Golino) in Trieste, is an unpopular kid who doesn’t seem to be good at anything. Constantly bullied, he sees his lovely classmate Stella (Noa Zatta) as the only bright spot in his life. One day, Michele discovers that he has the ability to become invisible, and suddenly finds himself drawn into a series of increasingly strange events involving Russian children who also have supernatural powers.
