Reality bites





these two movies 'Sommer vorm Balkon' (summer in Berlin) by Andreas Dresen, Germany 2007 and 'Tutta la vita davanti' by Paolo Virzì, Italy 2008, describe the life of the margins of society, which becomes more and more mainstream in their countries. it is interesting to compare, beyond the story, the current issues that emerge in each one of them and the specific problems that these countries deal with in these days: unemployment, social assistance, family ties, relationships and instability. i find that in both movies there is a very good study of the scenography and the characters with big attention to the details.
