Watchlist:

Matteo, a nine years old kid, builds a mask identical to the one of his hero: a wrestler of a roman suburb called The Tiger. Once the mask is on, Matteo never wants to take it off. What simply appears as a tantrum is in reality a call for help that nobody seems to hear.

Why you might like this:

Fans of nuanced Italian dramas will appreciate the poignant performance of young Simone Santini as Matteo, as well as director Gabriele Mainetti's sensitive exploration of a child's emotional struggles in the 2012 film Tiger Boy.
