Starring Alessandro Gassmann and Isabella Ragonese, "My Brother Chases Dinosaurs" is the story of Jack (Francesco Gheghi) and his brother, Giò (Lorenzo Sisto), who has down syndrome. As a child, Jack believed the well-intended lie his parents told him, that Giò was a special being with superpowers, as in a comic book. Now that he is about to go to high school, however, Jack no longer believes that his brother is a superhero. In fact, he is sometimes embarrassed by him, especially since meeting Arianna, his first love. Jack feels that he cannot risk making a bad impression with the girl of his dreams, and looking after his little brother with his unpredictable behavior soon becomes a burden. So, Jack pretends not to have a brother at all. But you cannot expect someone to love you with your imperfections if you cannot do the same, and this is a life-lesson that Jack will have to learn. Ironically, Giò will be the one to teach him.
