Happy Family
Directed by Gabriele Salvatores
Produced by Comune di Milano, Colorado Film
A playful, meta-comedic romp about a screenwriter losing control of his own narrative to his increasingly self-aware characters.
A blocked screenwriter, Ezio, is trying to finish a story about two off-kilter families thrown together when their teenage children announce they’re getting married. So Ezio writes himself into the story with a romantic part—a development his characters welcome, as they’ve got some ideas of their own for bigger and better roles.
