Synopsis

On a freezing Christmas Eve in Milan, seven-year-old Lavinia, a modern-day match girl, is alone and starving. After offering a light to a fairy, she receives a magic ring that can turn anything into excrement. Initially horrified, Lavinia soon learns to use the ring to her advantage, transforming her life and challenging the indifference of adults. This humorous and irreverent modern fairy tale explores themes of justice and resourcefulness.
