MARY AND THE SPIRIT OF MIDNIGHT
Type: animation ✦✦✦
By Enzo D’Alò. Voices of Maria Pia Di Meo, Charlotte Infussi D’Amico, Matilda De Angelis
Mary is a free and “insolent” eleven year old, as they are often reminded. She dreams of becoming a great cook and only her grandmother Emer seems to encourage her to follow her passion, even when the teachers arrogantly reject her creations.
From the novel The Midnight Trip by Roddy Doyle (Guanda), a poetic coming-of-age story that compares four generations of Irish women and that the author’s style The seagull and the cat turns into a universal theme.
The passing of the baton between Mary and her grandmother is truly “a wonderful journey” not to be afraid of.
