Miracle in Milan


This is a movie i will buy and keep.

The tales of post-war Italy
plagued with poverty, unemployment,
rich-poor gap, indifference of authority etc etc

yet at the same time a hero, 
Toto,
not quite a hero who stands apart from the crowd
and helps them,
but somebody whom the poor living 
in the shantytown can connect with.

Toto taught these people to hope,
to make merry admist their poverty.

However one day when a traitor of their hometown
traded the secret that the town has oil reserves
to the rich,
and soldiers and businessmen seek to chase them away
via force,
Toto achieved magical prowess by his mother
who adopted him from a cabbage patch where he was found.

And so he granted the wishes of many,
and they began making more unreasonable wishes.

And then his dove, a symbol of his magic power was GONE!
Stolen back by the angels to heaven.

So everyone had to move out.

Suddenly, while everyone was on the vehicles,
Toto's mother gave him the dove,
and so everyone got freedom!

Toto and his lover led everyone to fly to the sky
on brooms, from Milan's Central Square,
and there they attained freedom.
