HEAVENLY BODY

  After living with her family in Switzerland for the past ten years, thirteen-year old Marta returns to her hometown of Reggio Calabria in southern Italy.  Marta immediately beings a preparation course for her confirmation which, according to all, is a good way to make new friends.  She meets Father Mario, a busy priest who runs his parish like a small business, and Santa, a woman who prepares the teenagers for their confirmation.  The parish is preparing a feast in honor of the arrival of a new crucifix that will replace the modern crucifix that few like. While waiting for the impending feast, Marta participates in the catechism activities, but she will soon understand that she must find her way in life elsewhere.
