Three Brothers
The Memorable World of Italian Dreams... The Private World of Three Brothers
Directed by Francesco Rosi
Produced by Gaumont, Iter Film
A meditative family drama centered on three brothers returning home for their mother's funeral, where grief and memory prompt introspection on mortality, ideology, and the weight of their divergent lives.
In a farmhouse in southern Italy, an old woman dies. Her husband summons their sons: from Rome, Raffaele, a judge facing a political case for which he risks assassination; from Naples, the religious and ideological Rocco, a counselor at a correctional institute for boys; from Turin, Nicola, a factory worker involved in labor disputes. Once home, each encounters the past and engages in reveries of what may come.
