Il Ladro Di Bambini (The Stolen Children)

Publicerat av lucas4you den juli 12, 2008

Antonio, a policeman, is ordered to take two children, Rosetta and her brother Luciano, from Milan to Sicily to an orphanage after their mother has been arrested for forcing Rosetta to work as a prostitute.

A sublime movie in the Neo-realist tradition, Antonio helps these two damaged children discover, for a few days, the childhood that has been denied them.

It has won several awards including the Grand Prize of the Jury at the Cannes Festival in 1992.
