**My Italian Family**
*Damned if you do, damned if you don’t*
A retired professor leads a peaceful and pleasant life — a nice pension, regular friends, meals, and good wine. However, the tranquility evaporates overnight when his daughter lands at his home with her two rowdy children and a marriage on the brink of breakdown. Set against the picturesque streets, squares, and small cafes of Rome, unfolds a funny family mess — a story about the parental generation that must relearn what family, responsibility, and patience mean, and above all, how to survive the next generation. Gianni Di Gregorio, the director of hits like “Mid-August Lunch,” “The Good Life,” and “Ciao Italy,” returns with a smart and warm Italian comedy about love, late parenthood, and the charm of life when everything goes wrong at just the right time.
