Presentation curated by Beppe Musicco, Journalist for Sentieri del Cinema and screening of the movie directed by P. B. Shemran, starring Mel Gibson, Sean Penn and Natalie Dormer (2019).

Great Britain, late 1800’s. A gigantic undertaking, printing the first complete dictionary of the English language, lays the foundations for an extraordinary relationship between a British academic, self-taught (and therefore viewed with suspicion by intellectual circles) and an American locked up in a criminal asylum. Another real story that brings together two very different people, in a film that talks about human redemption and forgiveness. Great performances by Mel Gibson and Sean Penn
