PODCAST | Angelo Acerbi interviews Tia Kuovo, director of the film Family Time.
Tia Kuovo brings us into a very personal Christmas Day , using it as an excuse to analyse family dynamics. With Family Time, in the Encounters section at Berlinale 73, she presents an approach to family rites and sometimes unbearable situations that can transcend their nature and become universal.
Family Time: Family Time begins with a door that keeps on opening to let its characters into a house surrounded by nature that will be the setting of much of the film, and welcomes the audience into a small world that is portrayed with fierce tenderness and surprising rigour. Three generations come together for the holidays and re-enact a seasonal ritual of traditions, conversations and household chores.
