I Saw a King
1936, in the aftermath of the Ethiopian occupation by Fascist Italy, under the incredulous gaze of the inhabitants of the small town in the Italian province Abraham Imirrù, an ethiopian prince and guerrila fighter is being held prisoner in the local Podesta garden's aviary. But for little Emilio, local recently force enlisted and reality-dissociated Balilla, he is Sandokan, the literal Salgari's character ...and he will be his hero.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The comedy engine runs smoothly — pace, timing, situational hits. This isn't high comedy, but high comedy isn't what's needed here.
Half the jokes land, half don't — that's a normal result for the genre. The important thing is the film doesn't try to seem smarter than it is. Respect for that.
Works for a broad audience on Friday night. Not for those seeking satire or depth.
Director: Giorgia Farina
