Details
Ten year old Denni has a mission: to protect his mother from his violent father. At his age, he can’t do it alone, so he decides to ask for help from an assassin for hire, a “super-killer”. He identifies Secco who is not a criminal but a hopeless mess who is desperately in need of money who pretends to accept the job to steal from the boy’s father. The encounter between Denni and Secco sets off an adventure that oscillates from drama to comedy, a child-sized buddy movie, somewhere between fantasy and a reality that is too very real. Denni and Secco have an experience that takes them to question the meaning of life, and the fear and mystery that unites and separates father and children.

...'An endearing first feature... mixing softness and harshness [on] the topic of domestic violence...'
