Synopsis:
Despite his myriad flaws, construction worker Claudio is a devoted husband and father, willing to do whatever it takes, even blackmail, to keep his family afloat. After the death of his wife, though, his sins catch up with him and he must battle his grief while trying to protect the fragile life he has built. With its perceptive depiction of life in Italy’s working class, this poignant drama echoes the fiery social conscience of Ken Loach.
