Synopsis

Benedetta, 15, lives in rural Italy with her dysfunctional family. When a funfair arrives in town, she meets Amanda, a fairground worker who lives a self-determined life and defies gender norms. Benedetta is immediately fascinated by the older Amanda, and school quickly fades into the background.

Our take

Struggling with body shaming from her own family, a teenage girl forges a great journey of self-discovery in Chiara Bellosi’s captivating coming-of-age fable. Powered by an intimate bond between social outcasts, this heady carousel ride oscillates between the thrill and the danger of rebellion.
