Rosa is eigenares van een kinderdagverblijf en wordt op een dag door de twaalfjarige Momo bestolen. Desalniettemin neemt ze de jongen onder haar hoede. De twee raken aan elkaar gehecht, omdat ze allebei gebukt gaan onder hun verleden: Momo worstelt met het leven als straatjochie, Rosa heeft de holocaust overleefd.
Ja! de film La vita davanti a sé is nu beschikbaar om te kijken op Netflix in Nederland.
