Set in postwar 1940s Italy, this Italian period comedy-drama follows Delia (Paola Cortellesi) a working-class wife and mother breaking traditional family patterns and aspiring to a different future, after receiving a mysterious letter. Shot in black-and-white in the neorealist style of the 1940s and 50s this film is a must see on the silver screen.

Winner of Audience Award Rome Film Festival and Italian Oscar Submission for Best International Feature Film.

In trying to put her own spin on neorealism, Cortellesi loses sight of the things that made the genre enduringly effective. Abby Olcese, RogerEbert.com

The script skates perplexingly between pathos and humor, relying on cheap sentimentality and slapstick comedy to distract from its lack of depth. Beandrea July, IndieWire
