Synopsis

The armor of invisibility hides a cry for help that no one seems to hear.

Following a devastating accident that shatters his emotional stability, twelve-year-old Capi finds himself trapped in a severe post-traumatic stress crisis. While his school, his inner circle, and his family remain completely blind to the silent trauma unfolding before them, a dedicated psychologist refuses to look away. Determined to untangle the knots of his psychological retreat, he begins a delicate journey to earn the boy’s trust.

As Capi slowly opens up, a heartbreaking defense mechanism comes to light: he claims to possess the superpower of invisibility. Through his eyes, the terrifying nightmares that haunt his sleep are intimately bound to very real monsters and dragons. A profound and sensitive exploration of the invisible scars of youth, the weight of childhood trauma, and the crucial role of professional intervention when reality becomes too heavy to bear.

Why is it in the directory? This series offers a raw, brilliant, and deeply empathetic portrayal of severe trauma and coping mechanisms in adolescents. By exploring how a child’s mind handles the devastating weight of bullying through fantasy, it highlights the absolute necessity of safe spaces, psychological support, and active listening to prevent youth suffering from becoming completely invisible.
