Childhood can be said to be the best and most carefree stage of life. Looking back, we have forgotten many fragments of childhood, but never deny her unforgettable warmth. However, for children who are exposed to the flames of war and oppression, their childhood is cold and cruel. Xiaoluotou is a poor child who has lived in prison since the day he was born. His mother is a Communist, so he was brutally persecuted by the Kuomintang reactionaries. He is a prisoner of the Kuomintang, and the beetle on the sand is a toy of a small carrot head. Death and killing locked the child's footsteps, but could not seal his free-spirited imagination. In his mind, schools and prisons are no different, and the teacher’s laughter is unbearable.    The prison is a black home filled with murderous children. He is flying freely above the prison...

'o Re

One of the key factors in Italian unification was the overthrow in 1860 of Francesco, the King of Naples and the two Sicilies, who went into elegant but impoverished exile in Rome with his Queen, Maria Sofia. This seriocomic drama follows the deposed royals as they adapt to their new lives. The former king has recognized the political finality of his deposition, but his queen has taken to traveling in men's clothing all over Italy trying to foment an uprising to restore them to the throne. She is also frantic to have a baby, an heir, but the king has become celibate as a kind of homage to his beloved mother; he spends all his time lobbying the Vatican to get her declared a saint.
