NOTES

Title from title frames

Enzo, an ex-con from the poor outskirts of Rome, puts his newfound superpowers to use furthering his career as a delinquent, a fact which makes the local crime bosses far from happy. When he falls in love with Alessia, an unstable girl who brightens her dark world with elements from a Japanese anime, Jeeg, Enzo learns the value of helping others. But what price must he pay to become a hero? Nominated for Best European Feature at the **Fantasia Film Festival**. Official Selection at **Fantastic Fest**. *"Italy finally gets its own superhero, and the results are surprisingly gritty and thoroughly enjoyable."* - Jay Weissberg, **Variety**
