November 7, 2010 – Galaxy Cinema 7:00pm
Reviews:
Jeffery M. Anderson, Combustible Celluloid: "A unique recipe, a bittersweet comedy/drama, with a dash of realism."
Dan Lybarger, eFilmCritic.com: "Novice feature director Gianni Di Gregorio has made a terrific and warm little comedy by only occasionally leaving his apartment in Rome."
Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle: "You'd have trouble finding another movie with such unforced appreciation of its elderly characters or such intelligent understanding of old age."

Gianni (Gianni Di Gregorio) lives with his tyrannical, widowed mother (Valeria De Franciscis) in an old condominium in central Rome. When the condominium manager asks Gianni to take his own mother into the dysfunctional home, in exchange for knocking some money off the debts he has run up over the years, cash-strapped Gianni is forced to accept. The number of women multiplies unexpectedly, but Gianni heroically does his best to make them happy.
