A realistic drama or a clever parable? After the Cannes award-winning "The Wonders," Alice Rohrwacher presents a charming conundrum that is summed up in the protagonist's disarmingly naive gaze.

Synopsis

The story of Lazzaro, a young, kind-hearted peasant, and Tancredi, a nobleman cursed by his imagination. A sacred bond is created when Tancredi asks Lazzaro to help him stage his own kidnapping. This strange and unexpected alliance is a revelation to Lazzaro. A friendship so precious that will travel through time, placing Lazzaro in search of Tancredi.
