N2  - From case cover:
Young carabiniere Antonio (Enrico Lo Verso, the film's only professional actor) is charged with transporting 11-year-old Rosetta and 9-year-old Luciano to a children's home after their mother is deemed unfit to look after them.

With no relevant experience, it's not a job he was looking forward to, but when things don't go according to plan, he decides to take them on a long journey from Milan to Sicily.

The resulting top-to-bottom portrait of Italy acts as a backdrop to a complex psychological and emotional study of children slowly learning to trust an adult for the first time in their troubled lives. But do the authorities trust Antonio?
