The Last New Year's Eve
Directed by Marco Risi
Produced by Sorpasso Film, Istituto Luce Cinecittà
A darkly comedic ensemble piece that interweaves multiple storylines of desperation, betrayal, and impending catastrophe converging on New Year's Eve.
New year's eve at "The Islands" condos. An aging countess's party is crashed by the soccer team from her gigolo's town. While dressing for a dinner party, the wealthy Guilia discovers her husband's affair with her best friend and vows revenge. Next door, a family prepares their vintage Dodge for a drive through the streets. A call girl ties up a lawyer while, unbeknownst to him, three men await the right moment to break into his office. Across the hall, a woman downs pills in a lonely suicide attempt. Two young men hide out in a bedroom smoking dope; one of them has some dynamite. As midnight approaches, each group draws closer to grotesque tragedy.
