Benedetto is a child who came out of an accident uninjured on his first communion's day. The people of his village attribute that to a miracle and made him undergo a strict religious upbringing. That fact will determine his life, which will be affected by inner torment caused by the confrontation between sexual desires and sacrifices of faith, sin and grace.

VIBE

This film feels like a quiet, introspective journey through the complexities of faith and burgeoning desire. It's a character study that balances gentle humor with profound inner conflict, set against a backdrop of small-town life and religious expectation.
