Un oggi alla volta

Directed by Nicola Conversa, "Today Again" (originally titled "Un oggi alla volta") takes a partialy naive look at the human experience, highlighting the fine line between hope and despair.

You will meet Marco, a nervous nineteen-year-old on the edge of adulthood, juggling three subjects he needs to pass, a mom glued to her smartphone, and a brother chasing his dream of becoming an indie singer. He's a bit of a loner, yearning for love in a way that feels nostalgic. Then there's Aria, who graduated last year and has "one day at a time" inked on her arm, living each day like it's her last. Their paths cross thanks to a wrong phone number giver, sparking a connection that grows deeper. But Marco doesn't realize that Aria's approach to life isn't just a quirky choice; it's rooted in something much more complex.

This film is an engaging and heartfelt teen love story that takes viewers on an unexpected journey as the main characters chase the simple yet complicated goal of finding love in today's world.

One of the film's highlights is its screenplay, which skillfully mixes light-hearted moments with deep reflections. Conversa's writing fosters empathy and understanding, with dialogue that feels real and relatable, making the characters' experiences resonate.

"Today Again" isn't merely about loss; it's a tribute to resilience and the little victories that shape our lives.
