A wonderful performance by Sophia Loren. A traditional "unlikely friendship" story, but with a well-thought twist: Loren portraying an old Holocaust survivor and Ibrahima Gueye the child trying to survive all by himself.
It's a beautiful, simple story and very relevant - the movie is set on what it looks like an Italian seaside town that serves as an entry gate for refugees and many different cultures.
Overall, nothing too fancy, just a nice story that puts aside religion as an obstacle for friendship, but never forgets it and showcases how similiar we all are.
