Le Proprietà dei Metalli plot
An assortment of metal objects is scattered on the kitchen table in front of Pietro. He closes his eyes and gently extends his hand. The rumor of the boy's psychokinetic abilities has spread far beyond the confines of the small Italian village; it is said that he can bend more than just spoons. When a university professor regularly visits Pietro, the experiments are a welcome distraction - because despite the idyllic beauty of the landscape, life here is hard: unresolved debts hang in the air, along with unhealed wounds from the family's past. A portrait of a world in turmoil; of a place and time when a boy's gift seems like a beacon of hope, with promises of a better life.
