Italian comedy from 59-year-old writer/director/star Gianni Di Gregorio (Mid-August Lunch) about a man who lives with his mother, wife and daughter, but realises he is the only one without a love life...
"Di Gregorio plays Gianni, who has escaped mamma's domain for long enough to have taken on a wife, who now regards him with affectionate disdain, and fathered a daughter (played by Di Gregorio’s own daughter, Teresa) whose blithe indifference to a devoted boyfriend is the latest in a long line of slights to the male gender. Gianni pines for a time when women returned his gaze and didn’t just see him as an obliging chap with time on his hands who might run errands. He feels the urge to break out, to beguile the lovely young things he sees everywhere... or, failing that, maybe look up some of those old girlfriends scared off long ago by mamma." (NZ International Film Festival 2011)
