Venice: Film Festival – Low Tide. Roberto Minervini’s
Low Tide. A twelve-year-old boy and his single mother live separate lives. The boy spends his days alone while his
mother works and goes out with her friends.
The boy’s solitude is both a source of freedom and a cause for
grief. His explorations slowly bring to
light the dark contrast between the rules of society and the laws of nature.
And before long, the delicate balance of his inner world becomes shattered by
unforeseen events.
