Starring Isabella Rossellini (Blue Velvet, Enemy)  THE ZIGZAG KID is a whimsical, witty, and action-­packed adventure about an almost-­thirteen-­year-­old boy named Nono and his world of confusions, fears and fantasies.

Nono longs to be a good detective like his father, a famous police inspector, but his wild nature constantly gets him into trouble. Two days before his bar mitzvah, he is sent off to his uncle's to be disciplined yet again. Once on the train, the over-imaginative boy runs off to the French Rivera with the charming international thief Felix Glick, entering a world of disguises and crazy pursuits, and crossing paths with the famous singer Lola Ciperola, and Zohara, a mysterious woman whose secrets will forever change Nono's life.

Based on the beloved novel by David Grossman, THE ZIGZAG KID uses wit and humor to explore the most fundamental questions of good and evil and to speak directly to adults and teenagers.
