What happens

Tutto il giorno davanti è un film per la televisione diretto da Luciano Manuzzi e liberamente ispirato all'esperienza di Agnese Ciulla, assessore alle attività sociali del comune di Palermo dal 2014 al 2017 che ha preso in carico come tutore legale oltre 900 minori stranieri non accompagnati sbarcati nel capoluogo siciliano.
