SYNOPSIS
Denni has ten years and a mission to accomplish: to save his mother from the violence of his father. Small as it is, alone he cannot do it. So he decides to ask for help from someone that people kill for a living: a super-killer. The chosen person is the Skinny who is not a criminal, but a harmless drifter with a desperate need for money, who pretends to accept the assignment but only to rob the father of the child. The encounter between Denni and Secco gives rise to an adventure that oscillates between drama and comedy, a buddy movie at child height, poised between fantasy and a reality even too raw. Denni and Secco will live an experience that will lead them to question themselves on the meaning of being men, and on fear and the mystery that unites and separates fathers and sons.
