Rita
Antonio Piazza, Fabio Grassadonia
Rita, ten years old, blind since birth, lives in a seaside neighbourhood of Palermo. She is stubborn and feels thwarted by an overprotective dictatorial mother. The claustrophobic world of her home is suddenly breached by a mysterious presence who terrifies her at first, but may be a way to get out of this choking place.
