SYNOPSIS

You are four and have two sisters. Then one afternoon your parents announce that you are going to have a brother and that he will be very special. You are exultant because to you “special” means “superhero”. After his birth you realise that he is indeed different from the others, but he does not have superpowers. Then you discover the word “Down”.

This is the adventure of a family and the brothers Jack and Gio, a child with an extra chromosome.
