The film tells the misery of wealth, rending the dullness of a family that, even in ruin, think about buying a car. A universal behavior in a world where everything is scratch cards, want to appear on television. A story from the book of the same name by Roberto Alajmo (Knopf), which anticipates what is happening in our country today. And not only in our country.
Daniele Cipri, one of three Italian directors competing for the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival next, unable now to give you an idea of the atmosphere of his “It was his son” a story that part of it from the Sicilian Mafia, but get anywhere else. In that territory which combines degradation, moral poverty subculture television. And the dream is reduced to a symbol on four wheels: Mercedes, around which revolves the whole story.

As usual in the style of Daniel Ciprì – here for the first time without his signature work professional partner Franco Maresco – the atmosphere is grotesque, and often laugh, albeit in a really cry. stands the histrionic talent of the protagonist, Toni Servillo.
