Premise

edit

Omar is a second generation Italian boy of Senegalese descent who lives in public housing within a suburb of Milan. Shy to the point of feeling invisible, this turns into an extraordinary superpower, which makes him actually invisible when feeling strong emotion.

His story is intertwined with that of other kids from the estate who want to preserve their homes and the neighbourhood in which they grew up that is threatened by building developers.[5]
