THE TIME OF INDIFFERENCE

WITH VALERIA BRUNI TEDESCHI, EDOARDO PESCE, VINCENZO CREA, BEATRICE GRANNÒ AND WITH GIOVANNA MEZZOGIORNO

Based on the homonymous masterpiece by Alberto Moravia with an eye on our present time. An intense drama about a modern bourgeois family always about to downfall.

 Rome today. The Ardengo family, Mariagrazia and her children, Michele and Carla, despite the bourgeois appearance, live beyond their means, relying on Leo, a greedy businessman and Mariagrazia’s lover. The man is intentioned to take advantage of the woman’s recklessness in order to seize the only left asset of the family: the beautiful attic in which they live. In the attempt to prevent Leo’s plans, the family will fall apart and all the members will face their own demons. Carla, the 18yo daughter, will be surprisingly the only one to be able to react and to raise her head up and, even more surprisingly, the one to change the fate of the entire family.
