SYNOPSIS

A teenager’s rebellion against the adult world becomes the lens through which we view a silent yet urgent generational conflict driven by idealism and the search for self. Inspired by the real-life volunteer initiative of the “Cacciatori di Briciole,” Cercatori d’angeli is a neorealist fairy tale that shows how small, heartfelt connections, born in the hidden corners of a border town, can transform personal frustration into a broader struggle for social justice and environmental responsibility.
