Overview

Write a short summary of what happens in the film

On a little and remote island in the Mediterranean, the little Lara has born with an incredible gift: she can speak all the languages in the world. We follow Lara’s life and growth and we discover that she generously and positively chooses not to keep her gift to herself, but to share it with her whole community to help people in a host of situations as a metaphor of the power of language.

Cultural / Context information for the jury

The commercial was shot in Salina, a small island in Sicily, during a break in the 2020 lockdown.

The short was shot over 4 days of production, with a cast made up mostly of locals who were acting for the first time in their lives. For example, a school teacher played the medical specialist, the town's pharmacist played the role of the general practitioner, and two pairs of sisters played the main character Lara at different stages of growing up.

It was easy to find willing people, but finding a treadmill on the island was hard work.
