La Vita Possibile

[Machine Translation] In a corner of the big world, a father and son take a new step forward, and the kind-hearted people who watch over them. Set in the beautiful city of Turin in northern Italy, this moving film celebrates female friendship and the possibilities of life. Life can always start over. This powerful message is entrusted to this film by Italian director Ivano De Matteo, who has always been close to the vulnerable in society with his family-themed films. --Anna and her 13-year-old son Valerio flee her husband's domestic violence and come from Rome to Turin, where her best friend lives. Carla arrives at the Torino train station, smiles and hugs Anna and Valerio, who are heartbroken, and gives them a room in the small house where she lives. It was late fall in the city, and the leaves were shining. Anna is anxious to find a job to establish a foundation for her life as soon as possible. Valerio, on the other hand, was an active soccer player who spent his days riding around on his bicycle in solitude. One day, a package arrives from her husband, addressed to Valerio through Anna's father. Disturbed and wondering if she has made the right choice for her son, Anna hides the letter from Valerio. When Anna finally gets a job, she returns home to find that Valerio has read the letter and disappeared. With the help of Mathieu, the owner of a nearby bistro, she finds Valerio, but his heart is still clad in a hard armor. Supported by the hearts of the people, Anna and Valerio try to walk towards a fresh start in life, and one morning, a small miracle comes to them...
