Italian Film: Volevo Nascondermi (Hidden Away)

Film

Toni, an orphan of Italian origin, is deported from Switzerland to Italy, where he lives in abject poverty on the banks of river Po. Physically deformed and mentally disordered, Toni is marginalized and humiliated by a society hateful of any suspicion of divergence. Ultimately, he finds refuge in painting, channeling his bitterness and dire need for acceptance. A gripping biopic featuring painter Antonio Ligabue that exalts art’s redemptive powers, while praising the values of diversity.

Join the Italian Film Festival for a live discussion of the movie Sunday, May 22 at 11:00 AM on Zoom.
