In four decades, the merciless Neapolitan reality has tamed a once fiery girl into a sensitive woman torn between the care for her children and parents, her unresolved feelings for her husband and the demons of her family’s past and the unfulfilling present. Anna is not unhappy, but why, then, when she opens the kitchen window in the mornings the sky is never blue, but a heavy grey? The Coppa Volpi Award for best actress for Valeria Golino at the 2015 Venice Film Festival.

Quentin Dupieux (Daaaaaalí!) returns behind the camera with a provocative, absurdist yet hilarious love letter to terrible films and bad actors facing their characters and their lines. This is farcical, surrealistic cinema that only he is capable of – with a message, if not many – and starring his most A-list cast yet. Opening film of this year’s Cannes Film Festival.
