The sea that moves things

Storyline

Massimo is the owner of a beach resort where he lives with his wife and two daughters. Everything has changed since he discovered having Parkinson’s disease: his days follow one another in a state of apparent uselessness. The encounter with an African boy will give him the opportunity to react to the pain, put it aside, and understand that he is still able to take care of his neighbor. Because even more than disease, fear is the real enemy to fight.
