Ketticè

2026 · 107 min

This film offers a reflective and emotionally resonant look at navigating youth and finding connection in a mundane setting.

Overview: Palermo, 2012. Giulio, a listless and dissatisfied 16-year-old, drifts through his days with no enthusiasm for school and no prospects for the future. His encounter with Ketty, a more self-assured peer, offers him an escape from the monotony.
