Days and Clouds –This Summer
Life dramas are always appealing to watch, but they become much more appealing for viewers if they contain extreme elements. The new movie of Silvio Soldini, Days and Clouds, is set for theatrical release this summer and promises to present extreme scenes and dialogs.
The movie is produced by Doriana Leondeff and stars Margherita Buy, Giuseppe Battiston, Giuseppe Battiston, Alba Rohrwacher with Paolo Sassanelli. Days and Clouds revolves around a happy, middle-aged married woman, Elsa, who lives in the beautiful seaport city of Genoa. Elisa suddenly finds out that she must adapt to an entirely new way of life since her husband, Michelle, has lost his job and is fired by the company he founded himself.
Spill.com reports that Elsa and Michele both try to find work while dealing with the predicament in directly opposing ways. Later, after moving into a much smaller apartment, the cracks in Elsa and Michele’s now fragile marriage gradually begin to widen to the point when they decide to separate from each other.
One day, after gently scraping the ceiling of a local chapel to reveal hidden angels that hadn’t seen the light of day in decades, Elsa is informed by her husband Michele (Antonio Albanese) that the couple will have to give up their posh apartment. Michele was formerly a partner in a successful shipping firm, but now that his partner has forced him out of the business the happy husband and wife won’t be able to maintain their current lifestyle.
According to Rotten Tomatoes, first, the two get seperated, but only when they apart they realize that they risk losing their most precious possession: the love that binds them.
Well-to-do, sophisticated couple, Elsa and Michele, have a 20 year-old daughter, Alice, and enough money for Elsa to leave her job and fulfill an old dream of studying art history. After she graduates, however, their lives change. Michele confesses he hasn’t worked in two months and was fired by the company he founded years ago. Elsa overcomes her initial shock by pouring extra energy into facing the crisis while Michele, exhausted by an unsuccessful job hunt, lets himself go, alternating between vivacity and apathy.
