Comedy

After thirty years in the big corporation, Ugo Fantozzi retires. Suddenly, he needs things to do in everyday life and he tries a number of activities: helping Pina shopping; babysitting grand-daughter Uga; a trip to Venice; learning golf. He then fakes documents to get a new job, but in the end he becomes a hypochondriac and doesn't even take a long-awaited chance with Miss Silvani.

VIBE

A hilariously bleak look at a man adrift after decades of corporate servitude. Fantozzi's attempts at a new life are a masterclass in awkwardness and misfortune, leaving you squirming with empathy and laughter.
