Drama released in 2021, the film “Somewhere Special” was inspired by a true story. Directed by Uberto Pasolini the story was born after the director read an article in a newspaper.

In the long, John (James Norton) He has a simple life, as a window cleaner. With the death of his wife during childbirth, the boy begins to dedicate his life to his son.

However, when the boy is three years old, the protagonist discovers a terminal illness and that he has little time to live. With the intention of ensuring the best future for the little one, John sets out in search of a family that is perfect to raise him.

In an interview with the FilmInk website, Uberto Pasolini said that the idea came up after reading a newspaper article, which told the story of a single father diagnosed with a terminal illness. In the story seen by the director, the child was just four years old when his father began looking for an adoptive home.

Unlike the story told in the film, in real life, the mother abandoned the family, causing the father to dive head first into raising his son. To preserve identities, the director still chose to change the names.
