Director Gabriele Muccino (whose credits include Will Smith’s Seven Pounds and The Pursuit of Happyness, as well as the international hit The Last Kiss) returns with an emotionally expansive ensemble drama set on a beautiful island, home to a couple celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary in the company of children, grandchildren, and children’s ex-wives… Inclement weather extends the party beyond breaking point, as ex partners quarrel, singles pair off, and teenagers fall in love… Keeping farce at arm’s length, Muccino treats heartache with sincerity and sensitivity, and casts a sympathetic eye on the failings and foibles of a family not so different from any other.
