Mine Vaganti (Italy, 2010) dir. Ferzan Ozpetek
At the centre of the film is the Cantone family, from Lecce
in southern Italy. The family owns a successful company which produces dried
pasta. Tommaso, the younger son, lives in Rome and studies literature. He wants
to be a writer but his father intends for him to take over the family business
with his brother, Antonio. Neither brother wants this fate for himself. The
film examines the difficulty of family relationships, both personally and
professionally.
The film features scenes in the warehouse of the pasta
company and there are also a number of dialogues discussing the nature of the
family-run business in Italy.
