ASCENT TO HEAVEN is a life affirming comedy/drama that centres on Oliverio, a young newly wed enjoying his honeymoon. The peace and solitude is soon shattered when Oliverio brothers arrive and insist on taking him home to see their ailing mother. Once back, Oliverio learns of his mother’s concerns; realising that she has little time left and that her other sons are not to be trusted, Oliverio is charged with finding a solicitor to legitimise his mother’s will. Easy? Not quite, as Oliverio soon fins out when he is forced to take an unforgettable journey on a beaten-up bus, across rivers, mountains and forests.
