Stealing and imaginary horses


A Ciambra (2017)

Written & directed by Jonas Carpignano this film stars Pio Amato, Koudous Seihon and Damiano Amato. A fourteen year old boy living in a Romani community in Southern Italy wants to be a criminal like his older brother.

A coming of age set in one of the marginalised communities in Italy this is an interesting watch. As with many films in the genre there is not a lot new to it but it is well made and somewhat universal in it's story. I enjoyed the film but it was a little on the long side in my opinion.

4/5
