SYNOPSIS
Delia (Paola Cortellesi) is Ivano’s wife, the mother of three children.
Wife, mother. These are the roles that define her and that’s enough for her. We are in the second half of the 40s and this ordinary family lives in a Rome divided between the positive push of liberation and the miseries of the recent war.
Ivano (Valerio Mastandrea) is the supreme leader and master of the family, he works hard to bring the little money home and never misses an opportunity to underline it, sometimes with contemptuous tones, other times, directly with the belt.
He only has respect for his scoundrel father, Sor Ottorino (Giorgio Colangeli), a spiteful and despotic old man for whom Delia is to all intents and purposes the carer. Delia’s only relief is her friend Marisa (Emanuela Fanelli), with whom she shares moments of lightness and some intimate confidences.
It’s spring and the whole family is excited about the imminent engagement of their beloved eldest daughter Marcella (Romana Maggiora Vergano), who, for her part, only hopes to get married quickly to a good boy from the middle class, Giulio (Francesco Centorame) , and finally get rid of that embarrassing family.
Delia doesn’t ask for anything else either, she accepts the life she has been given and a good marriage for her daughter is all she aspires to. The arrival of a mysterious letter, however, will ignite the courage to overturn the pre-established plans and imagine a better future, not only for her.
