The Kidnapping of Arabella

THE KIDNAPPING OF ARABELLA
a film by Carolina Cavalli

Starring Benedetta Porcaroli, Lucrezia Guglielmino, Chris Pine

Holly spends days at her dead-end job fantasizing about holes in the space-time continuum and wondering where her life went wrong. When she meets Arabella, an eight-year-old rebel hoping to run away from her self-absorbed author father, Holly becomes convinced their meeting is a cosmic sign, and that Arabella is, in fact, her past self, sent back for a second chance. The two embark on an unconventional road trip between two lost souls who might be exactly what the other needs.
