Hill of Vision

World War II, South Tyrol. Mario is only 4 years old when his mother is arrested by the fascists. The little boy spends his childhood on the streets living off scraps. When the war ends, he and his mother miraculously find each other and start a new life in America at the Quaker 'Hill of Vision' community. Mario fails to fit into the new context of normalcy until he discovers, thanks to his scientist uncle, a passion for science. Based on the adventurous life of Mario Capecchi, winner of the 2007 Nobel Prize in Medicine. (Source: Official Italian synopsis translated via Deepl)
