Maurizio, tiny, reckless and full of energy, grew up in the poorest outskirts of Reggio Calabria. He has some unusual friends: a spiteful hen and a wise donkey to whom he confesses his dream: to play the snare drum in the neighborhood band. However, his family could not afford an instrument, so Maurizio embarks on an adventure to find one by himself…
A charming and beautifully rendered film from Italy, ostensibly for children, this is a gorgeous musical treat for all ages.
