Monday at the Cinema is a series of screenings dedicated to Italian contemporary cinema promoted in collaboration with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation.
Patria – Director: Felice Farina.
Another factory in Turin is being shut down and workers are being fired. Salvatore, a worker, climbs up the factory tower out of protest. Giorgio, a trade unionist, gets there to save him from falling. A third one, a keeper, joins them to keep them company. During the night, these very different characters reflect on the last thirty years of their country: years of wasted occasions, betrayed hopes, crimes and massacres, sudden reversals of majority in Parliament and power games.
