Jack, a four-year-old boy, has always dreamed of having a brother to play with. When his parents tell him he will have a “special” little brother, Jack imagines he will be a superhero. When Gio is born, Jack discovers that his brother has Down syndrome, but he decides to keep it a secret, even hiding it from those around him and from his first love, Arianna. The film follows Jack’s journey toward acceptance and his relationship with Gio, exploring themes such as shame, lying, and sibling love.
