The Lying Life of Adults (2023) is an Italian drama series you can watch online on iFILM — directed by Edoardo De Angelis and adapted from Elena Ferrante's 2019 novel of the same name. Giovanna, a teenage girl in 1990s Naples, overhears her father saying she's starting to resemble his sister Vittoria — a woman the family treats as if she barely deserves to be named.
Giovanna has grown up on the respectable side of the city, in a household where education and good manners functioned as a kind of armor. Tracking down Aunt Vittoria (Valeria Golino) exposes the Naples her parents pretended wasn't there: louder, rawer, less managed. Two incompatible versions of the same city, and Giovanna has to figure out which one her family has been lying about — and whether the other one is telling the truth.
Golino makes Vittoria the most magnetic person on screen every time she appears, dangerous in a way that explains exactly why the family kept her hidden. Stream The Lying Life of Adults online on iFILM.
