LIFE
Based on a true story, a raw, violent film that tells of the degradation of a young boy who enters the tunnel of desperation. His diversion becomes nights at the club, smoking drugs and carrying out pranks with the boys. It is no coincidence that the film shows us how Omar runs away from home, leaving everyone. However, Omar has inserted himself into this universe, with the explosive force of an extreme need for redemption. His interpretation of him brings together an incredible story of loss, love and survival at a time when leaving means abandoning the fight for freedom for which he has already sacrificed so much.
He will fight with his demons to be able to change his existence. Existential dissatisfaction now seems to be inherent in the life of Western man.
The film is human history, an insight into the condition in which a person in a similar situation can live, but also a bitter reflection on what it means to be migrants in a Europe that closes its borders.
Here in this story (Omar) managed to establish a sincere relationship of friendship and love with an Italian girl. It is therefore a film about love, but also about human strength that surpasses any frontier.
A powerful example of resilience and determination.
