Ovosodo
Life... what a sweet, cruel, silly thing.
Directed by Paolo Virzì
Produced by Cecchi Gori Group Tiger Cinematografica
A bittersweet coming-of-age journey through working-class Italy that balances humor and hardship as a boy navigates puberty, class struggle, and the path to fatherhood.
From childhood to fatherhood, Piero learns things the hard way while growing up in a working-class neighborhood of Livorno.
