Screenings
Giulio, a dissatisfied 16-year-old, drifts through life with no enthusiasm for his education or his future, much to his family’s dismay (particularly his endlessly frustrated mother, brilliantly played by Monica Bellucci). Ketticè is an articulate exploration of the challenges of adolescence and the expectations placed on Giulio by adults, when he and his friends are only attempting to escape the monotony of their daily existence.
