Pinocchio

Pinocchio, a 2019 fantasy film, co-written, directed, and co-produced by Matteo Garrone, brings to life the classic tale of a wooden puppet who becomes sentient and embarks on a journey to become a real boy. Federico Ielapi stars as Pinocchio, alongside Roberto Benigni as the loving Geppetto, Gigi Proietti as Mangiafuoco, and Marine Vacth as the adult Fairy with Turquoise Hair. The film seamlessly fuses adventure, humour, and moral instruction through the medium of magic realism.
