Bruno (2000)


Released April 16th in the US.
Filmed in North Carolina and New York.
The story: Young Bruno has a tough life.
He attends Catholic school, where the other boys beat on him and tease him constantly. Not one of the nuns see any of this going on as a problem Bruno is dealing with. Rather they consider it all a problem Bruno causes himself.
Brunos' mother is a sweet woman who makes money making dresses but has let herself go and is horribly obese.
And Brunos father...well, he is shacked up with a younger woman whom he left Brunos' mother for on top of being ashamed of just about everything Bruno does and is.
Many horrible things happen to Bruno, but he doesn't let any of this get him down.
Bruno has a recurring dream, which he sees as some sort of nightmare in which he is chased by an angel for stealing her dress.
From this so-called nightmare, Bruno comes to the conclusion that he was born to wear dresses as a form of expressing himself and will not stop this until everyone understands he has this right.
