 IL MIRACOLO

(Edoardo Winspeare, Italia 2003, 93 min., v.o.s.e.)

Men touch each other with blows. An energetic duo about masculine construction. A deconstruction of the contemporary virile behaviour, acclaimed by some and questioned by many. CLINCH in boxing is the moment in which the two boxers hug and block each other until the referee separates them. This movement is about getting as close as possible to your rival to protect yourself from their attack. CLINCH exposes the most toxic masculinity, established in the competition, the denial and the confrontation to all that is different. Furthermore, the denial of feelings, excluding rage or fury, that must be demonstrated through the exercise of violence.

Tonio es un niño de 12 años al que un día atropella un coche. Cuando despierta del coma en el hospital, descubre algo sorprendente: al acercarse a un hombre cuyo cardiograma no indica latido alguno, su corazón comienza a palpitar.
