Just remember that the boys are only in it for the first few minutes of the film before you pay too much money for it. After that the characters are all adults.

It's a good movie anyway, but it depends on how interested you are in it aside from the boy actors.

I CENTO PASSI
directed by Marco Tullio Giordana

"This isn't a film about the Mafia. It's more a film about energy, about the desire to build, about imagination and the happiness of a group of kids who dared to look to the sky and challenge the world, thinking they could change it. It is a film about family conflict, love and disillusion, about shame and blood relations. It's a film about all the good things that the youth of ’68 achieved, and is about their utopias and their courage." (Marco Tullio Giordana)

Cinisi, a Sicilian village like many others, is an important crossroads for drug trafficking. A hundred steps separate Peppino Impastato's house from that of Mafia boss Tano Badalamenti. Peppino refuses to walk those hundred steps. His adolescence reaches its apex in ’68 when the world's youth contradicted their fathers' values and certainties. Peppino also rebels against authority and in Sicily this means challenging the Mafia. The atmosphere becomes intense. Peppino stands in the council elections, aiming to bring his battle to the Town Hall. Two days before the elections he is killed. It is an anonymous killing. Twenty years later the Palermo Public Prosecutor's Office committed Badalamenti for trial for ordering the assassination. The trial has not yet taken place.
