Exclusive: Lionsgate’s Stephen Chbosky-directed drama will screen in Rome’s youth-oriented Alice In The City strand.
Julia Roberts-Jacob Tremblay drama Wonder will get a special screening at the Rome Film Festival’s autonomous sidebar Alice In The City on November 3.
The screening, the film’s first at a festival, will be for students and teachers but not for press and no talent will be present.
Directed by Stephen Chbosky (The Perks Of Being A Wallflower) and inspired by R. J. Palacio’s book of the same name, Wonder charts the story of a young boy - August Pullman - with a facial deformity who enters fifth grade, attending a mainstream elementary school for the first time.
By the time he’s 10, August has had 27 surgeries to help him breathe, see, and hear without a hearing aid.
