A lost toddler and sentient carnival rides: Italian chaos energy unleashed.
One day, Ciuccio, a lively little boy, gets out of his stroller and gets lost in the park without his parents noticing. There's a storm, and lightning strikes the Straspeed ride, which comes to life and meets the boy.

Maurizio Forestieri
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was produced by Ferrero (yes, the Nutella people) as branded entertainment for their Straspeed toy line—part of a bizarre European tradition of corporate-funded children's films.
Director Maurizio Forestieri also worked on Italian dubs of The Simpsons, meaning Bart Simpson and Alfastar share a cinematic lineage.
