Extra Grace

Her boyfriend is cheating, her daughter is rebellious, and she faces moral dilemmas at work. As a land surveyor and a single mother, Lucia's life is full of stress. One day, a mysterious foreign woman in blue robe appears in front of her eyes. She follows her like a shadow, but it seems that only Lucia can see her in the whole world. I thought I was stuck, but I didn't expect that the woman claimed to be the Virgin Mary and showed up just to ask for help. It's easy to ask a god but hard to send him away, not to mention that the god himself comes to bother you! Lucia dodges in every possible way and even begins to doubt life. When all resistance proves ineffective, she can't help but begin to wonder. Is the woman in front of her a phantom she saw in crisis, or a miracle that comes to liberate her tired heart? The famous Italian comedy director Gianini Zanasi skillfully combines the Virgin and the environment, capturing magical moments in life with absurdity and laughter. The Italian actress Abarro Valcarni, the winner of "Summer of Honey", reproduces her chameleon acting skills, accurately switching between neurosis, vulnerability and strength. The Hollywood Reporter praised the film as a hidden diamond that is both dramatic, entertaining and gripping. It won the Best European Film Award at the Cannes Directors' Fortnight.
