There's No Place Like Home

There's No Place Like Home (A casa tutti bene, 2018) is an Italian tragicomedy from Gabriele Muccino that you can watch online on iFILM. A sprawling family gathers at a villa on a remote island to celebrate the grandparents' fiftieth wedding anniversary. The mood is warm and the table is set — until a storm cuts the island off from the mainland.

Now the guests are stuck together far longer than anyone planned, and the close quarters do their work. Old grudges resurface. Affairs come to light. Money disputes and quiet envy between siblings and their spouses boil over, and the festive mask slips in a single night.

Muccino assembles a deep bench of Italian talent — Pierfrancesco Favino, Stefano Accorsi, Claudia Gerini, Sabrina Impacciatore and Stefania Sandrelli — and hands each of them a raw nerve. The result is a loud, recognizable portrait of how only family knows exactly where to wound you. It lands best with viewers who enjoy crowded domestic dramas laced with bitter laughs.
