2013 l 102’ l Italian l Colour l Italy Country Focus: Italy

Leo is 16. He has wild hair and a habit of dividing life up into colours. Everything he can’t stand is white: school, teachers, silence, and fear. Everything he loves is red: music on his iPod, his soccer team, the blood in his veins. And the colour of Beatrice’s hair… she’s the most beautiful girl at school and he watches her from a distance, in utter adoration. Leo’s dream is Beatrice. The girl who has leukaemia. Do dreams die? Is love any stronger than death?
