Milano

Written & directed by Christina Vandekerckhove
Produced by Lunanime

Milano (Basil Wheatley) is a 12-year-old boy who can hear with the help his implants but only expresses himself through sign language. He’s raised by his father (Matteo Simoni), who himself grew up in an institution and is struggling with parenting.

When Alain is away, Milano sometimes stays with Renée, a woman who seemingly has everything going for her. Then Milano’s mother suddenly re-enters their lives and nothing is the same anymore.
