Ugly, Dirty and Bad
ComedyDrama
Giacinto lives with his wife, their ten children and various other family members in a shack on the hills of Rome. Some time ago he has lost his left eye while at work, and got a consistent sum of money from the insurance company, which he keeps hidden from the rest of the family. His whole life is now based on defending the money he sees as his own, while the rest of the family tries to kill him.
VIBE
A raw, unflinching look at destitution and desperation. It's a bleakly funny, yet deeply disturbing, portrait of a family pushed to the absolute brink by poverty and their own primal instincts. Expect harsh realities and a sense of grim inevitability.
