Ciurè

About This Movie

Ciurè is this raw slice of life set in suburban Palermo, capturing the struggles of Salvo, a young father caught in a web of desperation. The pacing is unhurried, allowing the weight of his reality to sink in—makeshift jobs blending into the absurdity of crime as he fights for his son's future. What really stands out is the relationship he forms with Ciurè, a transgender dancer whose vibrant world contrasts sharply with Salvo's drab existence. The atmosphere is thick with tension, yet there's a surprising warmth in their interactions. The performances feel genuine, not overly polished, grounding the film in a kind of authenticity that resonates long after viewing. There's something about its exploration of identity and survival that lingers, drawing you into its kaleidoscopic nightlife.
