The Hand of God
È stata la mano di Dio
Set in 1980s Naples, the film follows teenage Fabietto Schisa as he navigates the joy of Diego Maradona's arrival at Napoli football club and the sudden, devastating loss of his parents to a carbon monoxide accident. Semi-autobiographical, the film traces how tragedy and the love of cinema shape Fabietto's path toward becoming a filmmaker.
