My Italian Family | Damned if You Do, Damned if You Don’t
A retired professor lives a quiet and pleasant life—a nice pension, regular friends, good meals, and wine. But this peace is shattered overnight when his daughter arrives at his home with her two unruly children and a marriage on the verge of collapse. Against the backdrop of Rome’s picturesque streets, squares, and small cafés, a hilarious family chaos unfolds. It is a story about a generation of parents forced to relearn what family, responsibility, and patience truly mean—and above all, how to survive the next generation.
Gianni Di Gregorio, director of the hits No Hunger in Roma, Eating Out, and Ciao Italia, returns with a smart and warm Italian comedy about love, late parenthood, and the charm of life when everything goes wrong at exactly the right time.
