Esteemed Italian director Paolo Virzì’s apocalyptic dramedy takes us to Rome hit by a three-year drought. Under the pressure of thirst and water restrictions, a plethora of characters, young and old, successful and lost, victims and abusers, roam the city. Their lives are part of the same plan and they all seek redemption. Boasting an impressive cast (Silvio Orlando, Valerio Mastandrea, Monica Bellucci, Sara Serraiocco), the film follows the fates of the survivors – the exploiters – and those fighting for survival. It premiered at the 79th Venice Film Festival receiving praise for its original vision of social collapse.
