Disconnected

About This Movie

So, Disconnected, right? It's this quirky comedy from 2018 that dives into family dynamics in a pretty laid-back setting. You've got Ettore, a writer, who thinks a birthday getaway at a mountain chalet is the solution to bring his family closer. The interactions feel very natural, capturing the awkwardness of bonding attempts. The pacing is relaxed, allowing for those slice-of-life moments that might resonate with anyone trying to connect with family. Margherita, Ettore's second wife, adds an interesting layer, especially with her brother and Claudio's girlfriend around. It's not flashy—no big effects—but the performances carry it, making the mundane seem relatable. There's something about the mix of personalities that makes it a curious watch, almost like a little window into the complexities of family.
