Italian Film Festival - A Brighter Tomorrow

By Nanni Moretti

Giovanni, an Italian director in trouble with a wife undergoing analysis and a producer on the verge of bankruptcy, has stopped believing in the future. In the image of his protagonist, the leading figure of Unità and the communist section of the Quarticciolo, he wants to 'put an end’ to the world that is moving in the wrong direction: his wife has decided to invest in a young de-genre director, his daughter to marry a man much older than her, and then there's Netflix which produces canned cinema.
