In Calabria, the most violent region of Italy, a brave judge fights against the prevailing ’Ndrangheta mafia by taking young boys away from their extremely powerful families. Through the incidental, invisible lens of a filmmaker who grew up in the area, we closely follow the everyday reality of some offsprings in a controversial re-education program, witnessing how emotion and trust can unmake the distorted reality of tradition, blood ties, duty, and fear.
