About the Event
Dante Winter 2025 FILM Series: Chain Reaction/Reazione a catena
With the patronage of the Italian Cultural Institute of San Francisco
Series description:
A single decision can set off a chain reaction with profound consequences. This season’s films follow protagonists living during pivotal eras of Italian history whose lives are unexpectedly changed by the far-reaching consequences of a decision. Set in the 19th century and in post-war Rome, these dramatic art films invite us to consider how historical circumstances shape our lives and how our choices create effects that ripple through history.
The final film in the series is: There's Still Tomorrow (C'è ancora domani). Directed by Paola Cortellesi. 2023. 118 mins.
Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nNREdtrrQyk
In this moving comedic drama set in postwar Rome, a working-class woman dreams of a better future for herself and her daughter while facing abuse at the hands of her domineering husband. When a mysterious letter arrives, she discovers the courage to change the circumstances of her life.
The directorial debut of actress, writer, and singer Paola Cortellesi, There’s Still Tomorrow was a phenomenon at the Italian box office, outperforming both Barbie and Oppenheimer and winning six Italian Academy Awards.
