Titres dans Vie de famille

Ellis Island, 1909: da uno dei tanti transatlantici in arrivo sbarcano una giovane donna e il suo bambino. Provengono dall'Italia, dall'Aspromonte più arcaico e violento. I loro nomi sono Cetta e Natale: ma il bimbo viene subito chiamato, dagli addetti dell'Immigrazione americana, "Christmas".

Martha y Thomas forman una familia moderna. Ambos pertenecen a la vanguardia artística y cultural. Ella brilló en los escenarios internacionales como primera bailarina de las compañías más prestigiosas de ballet; él es un reconocido filósofo con una intensa vida académica. Su hija Felicitas dirige con éxito un canal digital y, como madre soltera por elección, ha criado a Penny, una adolescente que desafía todas las convenciones. Sin embargo, a sus setenta años, Martha y Thomas observan con desconcierto cómo el mundo que creían conocer ha cambiado para siempre.

A writer returns to his college town, where he is to conduct what will be the final published interview with Thomas, his ninety-year-old mentor. But after he drops his smartphone in the hotel sink, he arrives at Thomas's house with no recording device - a fact he is mysteriously unable to confess. What unfolds from this dreamlike circumstance is both a brilliant meditation on those technologies that enrich and impoverish our connections to each other, that store and obliterate our memories, and a moving exploration of the relationships that make us who we are.
