Hidden Away
Directed by Giorgio Diritti
A tender, introspective portrait of an outsider artist finding redemption and self-expression through his visionary work despite poverty, marginalization, and mental struggle.
The film tackles the life journey of Toni Ligabue, visionary naïf painter who used to draw tigers, lions and jaguars while living among the poplar trees of the boundless Po valley. A harsh life that is a fairy tale too, as a lonely and marginalized kid finds redemption in his art, and a way to express himself and be admired by the world.
