RELATIVES SNAKES

Grandmother Trieste and Nonno Saverio , her tireless housewife and his retired carabiniere, are eagerly awaiting the arrival of their four children, coming from all over Italy with their respective families to spend the Holidays together, as is tradition. The first to arrive will be Lina , the hypochondriac eldest daughter, with her husband Michele and little Mauro , therefore  the good-natured Alessandro with his wife Gina and their daughter Monica and then again the sensitive Milena with her husband Filippo and finally Alfredo , a brilliant high school teacher.

All things considered, the first hours will pass in harmony between memories and laughter, but an unexpected announcement will send Christmas lunch wrong and no one can imagine what "bomb" will explode in the house.  A series of uncomfortable revelations will unmask  the hypocrisy of perfect families only in appearance.

Formerly Jacopone da Todi in 1200 in his Laudi he said "Guàrdate da li relative" and in more recent times the famous joke of Totò "Relatives are like shoes: the tighter they are, the more they hurt you". , you find relatives and you can only hope that everything goes smoothly.
