Mia Madre (15)

Nanni Moretti's film about a director shooting a film while her mother is dying in the hospital shows the Italian filmmaker in a serious, subdued mood. However it is enlivened by the absurd comic clash between the short-tempered, self-absorbed, anxiety-ridden filmmaker Margherita Buy and her lead actor John Turturro. As ever, Moretti creates a rich and incredibly detailed world, where every character has a life that stretches far beyond their on-screen scenes.
