Much like an antique typewriter, Olivetti isn’t perfect, but it’s pretty darn special. Ernest is a quiet, sensitive kid who counts words from dictionaries as his friends, but when his mom disappears soon after selling her beloved typewriter to a pawn shop, he’s determined to bring her home. Never would he have guessed that the typewriter could communicate, and, through its countless stories, help him find his mom. With the help of a new friend, and Olivetti, of course, Ernest learns to confront the past and put his feelings into words. It turns out, the whole is much greater than the sum of its parts.
