Together, they explore a world not designed for them, inventing their own rules for love and happiness
Story
Seeking a change, 21-year-old Simon finds purpose by befriending two disabled children who teach him to embrace the joys of life.
Director Federico Luis has an interesting concept and intention to explore the awkwardness of loneliness and disabilities among people
With good sound design and atmosphere, Luis offers an interesting concept on the themes of friendship, disability, disadvantages and the environment all at once.
It reminded me a lot of the movie “The Idiots”
Where it explored disabled individuals and the environment of it all.
But Lorenzo Ferro’s strong performance, good direction and atmosphere provide some good insights for this movie
However, despite a good intention, Luis never fully utilized his concept as the writing sometimes feels thin and the characters are never given full motivations, making it a bit difficult to fully connect or understand the purpose.
