Balancing Act
Giulio suddenly finds himself having to change his life when his wife, after discovering his betrayal, asks for a separation and, suddenly, the reality around him is no longer the same. Forty years old and father of two children, Giulio is forced by circumstances to say goodbye to family and economic well-being and to study new solutions in order to stay afloat and not drown in a new poverty made of double rents and double bills to pay, solitary lunches in fourth-rate restaurants, children's wishes not to be ignored and creditors to hide from.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The director constructs an intimate drama that relies on the gritty authenticity of its domestic details and the protagonist's quiet desperation. It explores not the crisis itself, but the arduous process of adapting to a new, impoverished reality where every day is a financial and emotional calculation.
What lingers after the credits is a sense of the fragility of ordinary life and the quiet horror of starting over from zero. A sobering look at the social fallout of personal collapse. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Ivano De Matteo
