"Everyone's loneliness is a maze and each relationship is a thread....that's why it takes two to get out of the maze." The lives of nine kids slides thinly from normality to confront a world of dreams, but also of sacrifice and dedication. Lucrezia's courage against her Mother's will, at such a young age, to hold on to the child when she discovers herself pregnant. Diamante in her isolation would prefer "a slap in the face" with fury, than the caresses that hide something else. Chicco discovering what the "real" world really is. Crisscrossing stories never easy and never obvious as the world we live in proves to be. When dreams seem like they are ending, when words aren't enough: music, dance and the discovery of Minosse comes to the rescue as fast as a heartbeat of life, provoking new ways possible to continue. No idealism here, no rhetoric "Fame" in this approach to cinema by Heather Parisi.

Poster for Edison

2015 · ★ 7.2 (5)

By the time he died in 1931, Thomas Alva Edison was one of the most famous men in the world. The holder of more patents than any other inventor in history, Edison had achieved glory as the genius behind such revolutionary inventions as sound recording, motion pictures, and electric light. Born on the threshold of America's burgeoning industrial empire, Edison's curiosity led him to its cutting edge. With just three months of formal schooling, he took on one seemingly impossible technical challenge after another, and through intuition, persistence, and a unique team approach to innovation, invariably solved it. Driven and intensely competitive, Edison was often neglectful in his private life and could be ruthless in business. Challenged by competition in the industry he'd founded, Edison launched an ugly propaganda campaign against his rivals, and used his credibility as an electrical expert to help ensure that high-voltage electrocution became a form of capital punishment.
