The Last One For The Road (Le città di pianura)
Directed by Francesco Sossai. Roadtrip Comedy. Dur 1hr 38mins.
From the Cannes Film Festival comes a touching comedy and Italian box office success featuring one of the country’s most acclaimed new actors, Filippo Scotti. The film tells the story of two broke, bar-hopping 50-somethings who meet a shy, aimless architecture student. Together, the three embark on a nocturnal journey across the Veneto region in search of their elusive “last drink.” Along the way, their encounters lead to unexpected moments of camaraderie and self-discovery, as the film gently explores friendship, life’s uncertainties, and the search for meaning in the later stages of life.
The film will be presented by one of the actors Filippo Scotti.
