Four tales of love and betrayal: Tommaso (Silvio Muccino) meets and falls madly in love with the beautiful but completely uninterested Giulia (Jasmine Trinca); Barbara (Margherita Buy) and Marco (Sergio Rubini) are an older couple losing the spark in their relationship; Traffic cop Ornella (comedienne Luciana Littizzetto) strays from her marriage, and meanwhile, melancholic paediatrician Goffredo (Carlo Vendome) isn’t so lucky in trying to win back his wife.
Entertainingly frank, snappy and engaging, the smash-hit new romantic comedy from Giovanni Veronesi (WHAT WILL BECOME OF US) is Italy’s biggest local box office success for many years. Bright, handsomely crafted, and featuring an all-star cast, MANUAL OF LOVE is a terrific and energetic Opening Night Selection with plenty to enjoy.
