Matilde, Cencio, Fulvio and Mario are family when the 2nd world war hits Rome. Israel, the owner of their circus, disappears in the attempt to find a getaway overseas for them all.

8/10

Awesome start, could end better

A really well told fable, a spaghetti superhero movie. Don't expect avengers or ironman like movie, here heroes have fears, hunger and they don't pretend to save the whole world, they are not superheroes, they are freaks! Give this movie a chance and you'll not regret.
