Paola Cortellesi’s directorial debut, where she also takes on the lead, broke box office records wherever it was screened.

Synopsis: In the tradition of classic black-and-white Italian comedies, this film tells the story of Delia, a poor woman struggling to raise her three children under harsh conditions in post-war Italy. Delia and her husband Ivano live in Rome with their children and Ivano’s ailing father. It is 1946, and the people of the city are caught between the first signs of freedom and the lingering shadows of the past.
Delia is the archetype of the caregiving woman, accustomed to life under her tyrannical husband. The family is excited about their daughter’s upcoming engagement. But everything changes when Delia receives a mysterious letter that rekindles her courage and leads her to reclaim a better life.
Inspired by the stories of grandmothers and great-grandmothers.
