Two women, Rosa (Emma Dante) and Clara (Alba Rohrwacher), bicker as they drive through the Palermo backstreets; we soon realise they are lovers on the verge of a break-up. A proletarian family return from a fractious day at the beach, driven by Samira, the resented mother-in-law of a sweaty, crass, bolshy family patriarch. Finally, the two cars grind to a halt facing each other, with neither driver prepared to reverse. It's a stand-off that begins in the realm of the possible but soon drifts into more dreamlike, allegorical territory. (Umeå European Film Festival)

This film is like a litmus test for skeptics like me. Via Castellana Bandiera is advertised as a sharp, dialogue-driven piece, but I was warned by a friend that it’s not quite what it seems. Naturally, I didn’t listen and decided to watch it anyway. The opening scene at the cemetery, with its artsy shots, quickly made it clear this wasn’t going to be the standout film I had hoped for. And that narrow street... I mean, it feels like the Italians were bound to argue — it’s practically in their DNA. The real question is, do you want to spend your time watching Italians yell at each other? It seems the further south you go in Italy, the louder the shouting gets.
