Italian smash hit There’s Still Tomorrow (the film that beat Barbie at the Italian Box Office) follows Delia; Ivano’s wife and mother of three children. Wife, mother. These are the roles that define her and that’s enough for her. Set in the second half of the 40s in a Rome, a family divided between the positive push of liberation and the miseries of the recent war.

Ivano (Valerio Mastandrea) is the supreme leader and master of the family, he works hard to bring the little money home and never misses an opportunity to underline it saving his only moment of respect for his scoundrel father.

Delia’s only relief is her friend Marisa, with whom she shares moments of lightness and intimate confidences, and the imminent engagement of her beloved eldest daughter Marcella. However, the arrival of a mysterious letter ignites the courage to overturn pre-established plans and Delia begins imagine a better future, not only for her.

Shot in black-and-white neorealist style, this comedy drama film has become the most successful film ever shot by an Italian woman and is resonating with contemporary audiences world wide.
