DALLA LANA ALLA LUNA (From Wool to the Moon) is a coming-of-age story that follows Carlotta, a twelve-year-old girl, as she faces her fears. During her birthday party, Carlotta feels left out and under pressure, especially from her mother and peers. Her aunt Lella’s flashy gift — a pair of earrings — only deepens the conflict between her true self and others’ expectations. But the unexpected arrival of a drag queen as the evening’s entertainer changes the course of the celebration, offering Carlotta a new model of courage and authenticity. A key figure in her journey toward self-acceptance, the drag queen inspires Carlotta to find the strength to express her individuality. Taking a deep breath, Carlotta dives in — emerging transformed, ready to embrace herself.
