“With its themes of family secrets, oddball character parts, bittersweet tone and sunny outlook, this is the easily the most Almodovar-esque of all Ozpetek’s films”
Screen International
Tommaso, an aspiring writer, is the youngest child in the large, eccentric Cantone family who own a pasta factory in Puglia. He has come home from Rome for an important family dinner at which his father will hand over the management of the pasta factory to him and his brother. Determined to assert his own personal choices, Tommaso plans to announce at the dinner that he is gay. But that evening, just as he begins to say “silence please”, he is upstaged by his brother who, to Tommaso’s surprise, and everyone else’s shock, reveals his own secret!
