by Franco Lolli
Silvia has a lot to deal with: the charismatic forty-something single mother not only takes care of her son, but as a lawyer in the civil service, she is also involved in a precarious corruption case. Increasingly, she is finding herself at odds with her dearly beloved, cancer-stricken but still spritely mother. At the height of this emotional turmoil, a man enters Silvia’s life and, for the first time in a long time, she embarks on a passionate love adventure. In Franco Lolli we meet one of the most exciting new talents from Colombia. With a cast of phenomenal amateur actors, his second feature LITIGANTE marks an intimate and deeply emotional film about life as it is – with all its ups and downs.
