CLOSE TO MY SKIN

by Sergio Fergnachino, Mario Cappennani Cristina

documentary (Italy; 2015; 63′)

Synopsis

Federico, a boy suffering from an autistic disorder, and Mario, his educator, leave for a trip to Berlin. The trip is an opportunity to say goodbye to each other, as their educational relationship is coming to an end, since Federico is about to turn eighteen. They have seen each other regularly over the last four years, every Wednesday afternoon, and Mario has gradually become a kind of filter between Federico and the rest of the world, to the point of being the closest thing to skin he can stand.
