Suha A @Suhaabuarqub Oct 9, 2022 Certainly above average for Italian filmmaking: acting and screenplay are superb. However, the plot is puzzling, not giving the viewers anything really to relate to. What the film is trying to deliver as a message has not been clear to me. The entire plot sounded like a series of symbols to various angles of misery and neglect of children dreams and need for attention. On the technical level, for an Italian viewer the film is hard to understand due to the strict local accent, which frankly left me struggling for 40% of the film time to understand what the actors were saying. In addition, the sound was produced such that the environment's noise would cover the actors voices; it was a real struggle to understand the dialogues.

"Favolacce" proves that there is hope for Italian cinema after all. See more andrea c @Charst Jun 3, 2021 I fratelli D'Innocenzo tirano fuori un altro film dal grandissimo contenuto. Le vicende di alcune famiglie in un sobborgo di Roma si intrecciano nella quotidianità di un'estate e nella lotta per una sopravvivenza onesta e decente. Visionario e di una rara potenza, Favolacce porta con sè un finale che lascia senza parole. A tratti, forse, si eccede un po' troppo nell'astrazione dei pensieri e degli sguardi, prediligendoli troppo a qualche dialogo e qualche movimento in più.

So enjoyable when you're never quite sure what is going to happen next - I wanted it to be longer. Highly recommend this if you're looking for something different. See more Read all reviews
