Days and Clouds / Giorni e nuvole
Series: Open Roads: New Italian Cinema [June 6 – 12, 2008]
Director: Silvio Soldini; Country: Italy/Switzerland; Release: 2007, Runtime: 116

The day after a lavish birthday party, Elsa (Margherita Buy) discovers that her husband Michele (Antonio Albanese) was outmaneuvered by his former partners, pushed out of the company he helped found, and hasn't worked in months. Elsa vows to do all she can to get the family through these hard times. But Michele has lost more than his job. A certain energy has been taken from him, and he appears increasingly helpless—soon taking a toll of their marriage.

NYU-educated Silvio Soldini (Bread and Tulips, Open Roads 2001) brilliantly renders an increasingly familiar nightmare: an upper middle-class family whose comfortable lives suddenly disappear. He’s powerfully aided in creating this poignant social drama by two superb lead performances.
