The Man Without Gravity

The Man Without Gravity (L'uomo senza gravità, 2019) is an Italian fantasy drama you can watch online on iFILM. Oscar is born in a small-town hospital and immediately defies physics — he floats. His mother and grandmother decide the world isn't ready, so they lock the secret indoors and raise him in silence. The 107-minute film, directed by Marco Bonfanti, is a co-production between Italy, France, and Belgium.

Elio Germano plays Oscar as an adult who finally steps outside and becomes an overnight television sensation. The attention is real. The warmth behind it isn't. What looks like acceptance turns out to be spectacle, and Oscar — who spent his whole life longing for contact — finds himself further from it than ever.

There is no villain here, no tidy resolution, just a quiet ache at the centre. Bonfanti leans into fairy-tale imagery without the comforting finish. For viewers who like European cinema that sits with them a while after it ends. Stream The Man Without Gravity (2019) online on iFILM.
