Movie description:
»La Pivellina«, which translates as »the little one«, is set against the grey and grubby milieu of San Basilio on the outskirts of Rome – in the winter, no less. But while this cold, garbage-strewn setting would typically engender a harsh story of angst, brutality, or exploitation, co-directors Tizza Covi and Rainer Frimmel have instead captured a modestly scaled but emotionally potent chronicle of love and kinship. »La Pivellina« commits itself fully to the tenets and ethos of naturalism while eschewing both noble pronouncements and cheap histrionics.
Abandoned in a park, the two-year-old girl Asia is found by Patti, a circus woman living with her husband Walter in a trailer park in San Basilio on the outskirts of Rome. With the help of Tairo, a teenager who lives with his grandma in an adjacent container, Patti starts to search for the girl’s mother and gives the girl a new home for an uncertain period of time.
»La Pivellina« is a film about a cosmos of outcasts in present-day Italy: a moving tale of courage and discrimination, of loss and togetherness, a look behind the corrugated-iron fence of a gated community.
