DESCRIPTION

The last forty years of Italy are sketched on a grand scale, focused through the characters of the four protagonists Giulio, Gemma, Paolo and Riccardo. The feelings they share, love and friendship, their dilemmas, hopes, successes and failures, we observe from the time they enter life to adulthood. The director tells a powerful story about where they come from, where they are going and what the future holds for their children. The cycle of life repeats regardless of political and social background with similar dynamics. In his latest film, Muccino puts a mirror in front of his Italian audience and encourages them to find the country’s recent history in the characters’ fates as well.

The film was obtained with the support of the Italian Cultural Institute.


AWARDS

"The Last Kiss" (2001) won the Audience Award at the Sundance Film Festival and international recognition of the filmmaker. Muccino has been courted by Hollywood, with the director shooting "In Pursuit of Happiness" (2006) and "Seven Souls" (2008). The director cooperates with many world stars, he also returns to the Old Continent: "The Summer Has Come" (2016) or "The Best Years" (2020).
