Pepe Grillo (2021) User Reviews

an intimate tribute

[mrdetan · 10/10 · 18 January 2022]

A message sensitive to the heart that will make you cry and reflect. A letter written with real facts.

The composition of the entire film reflects the vision of a society that discriminates against the LGBT community, but also a vision of those who love and learn the value of people.

manifesto

[Kirpianuscus · 17 September 2022]

Story of the birth and evolution of a form of friendship. From the prejudices , feeding fears of childhood, to the parenthood of the boy from past. But Pepe Grillo, the same, loyal to his neigborhood and its people is the same. His generosity, advices, help, strong punch and flowers on the coffin of the mother of film hero , his enthusiasmus for the succeses of his friend with status of almost brother are inspired parts of a powerful manifesto, using gentle tools.

A film about modesty and about the hate against the different other.

And about truths understood very late because only the death gives coherent images of facts, events, situations being more than normal at the first sight.

A beautiful film, touching in profound manner , because it only reminds fundamental things, so easy - and cruel - ignored.
