The Childrens Train / Il treno dei babini

1946. Amerigo is eight years old and has never left Naples and his mother Antonietta. His world, made of streets and poverty, is about to change. On board one of the "trains of happiness" he will spend the winter in the north, where a young woman, Derna, will welcome him and take care of him. At her side, Amerigo acquires an awareness that leads him to a painful choice that will change his life forever. It will take him many years to discover the truth: those who love you do not hold you back, but let you go. A journey through the misery, but also the generosity of post-war Italy, seen through the eyes of a child torn between two Mothers.
