Enzo Ceccotti comes into contact with a radioactive substance, then startles when he discovers he has superpowers. A touchy, navel-gazing introvert, he’s sure his new capabilities will do wonders for his life of crime, but that all changes when he meets Alessia, who’s convinced he’s the hero from the famous Japanese comic strip, Steel Jeeg Robot.

This film approaches the "superhero" genre in a different way than is normally seen in mainstream cinema, making this a really refreshing watch. Often fun, but even melancholy, this film is both engaging with action but also thoughtful and sincere. With great acting, it's a must-watch.
