Dolcissime
Directed by Francesco Ghiaccio
Produced by Indiana Production, La piccola società
A warm-hearted coming-of-age comedy-drama about three bullied girls who find friendship, confidence, and unexpected redemption through an unlikely alliance and a shared athletic challenge.
Mariagrazia, Chiara and Letizia are inseparable friends forced to come to terms every day with the hated extra kilos, looks of disapproval from their schoolmates and giggles in the school hallways. Mariagrazia suffers for the confrontation with her mother (Valeria Solarino), a former sports champion. Chiara has a chat with a peer, but she is too afraid to send him her photo. Letizia has a talent for music but too much shame to show it. After the umpteenth teasing, an unexpected opportunity for redemption comes from the popular and beautiful Alice, captain of the synchronized swimming school team, forced by a blackmail to train them in secret. The three girls embark on an impossible challenge, driven into the water by their desire for revenge.
