Reviews
Wise beyond his years, Morace’s Tommi is a knockout performance of resilience and acceptance of his parents’ foibles and by the final scene of this assured debut feature there is unlikely to be a dry eye in the house.
Kim Rossi Stuart's directorial debut exposes the cracks in a family with edgy incisiveness.
Letting the drama gradually unfold, Rossi Stuart proves an adept helmer and captures the anxieties of childhood brilliantly.
A little over-long, ‘Libero’ loses its rhythm towards the end but still remains a thoroughly convincing portrait of a family.
Over-melodramatic in places but an impressive central performance from the young lead.
