La bambina che non voleva cantare

Based on Nada Malanima's autobiography, the story of her childhood that led to her debut on the Sanremo stage

In the Tuscan countryside of the early 1960s lives little Nada. Her universe is made up of her grandmother Mora, her sister Miria, her father Gino, a good and silent man, and her mother Viviana, who often falls prey to strong depressions that keep her away from her daughter and the world. When Sister Margherita discovers Nada's talent for singing, the little girl's fragile heart becomes convinced that only her prodigious voice has the power to heal her mother.
And so, between the joy of seeing her mother happy at last and the fear that the disease may be on the horizon again, Nada grows up accepting what Viviana wants for her, until that great talent survives even her own fears: everyone will soon discover the unique voice of that little girl who did not want to sing.
