Per Elisa - Il caso Claps

The docudrama is too slow and boring compared to the story so heartbreaking. Good actor indeed , but the overall feeling is of a missed opportunity to make a masterpiece.

Time passing by is not well described, seems also poor in addressing the real causes that came to built this drama.

Seems having a low budget to represents facts and situation. Few details for scientific facts, time line of events, no use of flashback.

I understand the director has his right to create a story but sincerely, as italian and already knowing the story, well ... this seems too obvious and inaccurate.

Said that ... I express my condolescence to the victims and their families.

Top quality writing and portrayal of a very sad and moving real life story, excellently written and played by lead actors involved. It was great to see this Italian made movie (written by an Irish Italian writer locally and I feel it should be up for an award

From the onset you become engaged with the main actor and family, your involvement is personal and heartfelt.

Highly recommend.

I very rarely binge watch any TV shows (the last one being the Sopranos ) but had to binge watch this, emotionally involved from the start I feel this has been very sensitively written with the living family in mind.

This series, Per Elisa (For Elisa), is a well made docudrama on the sad case of missing Italian teenager Elisa Claps. The details are accurate to the original, and was made with the consent of Elisa's family. The 6 episodes cover the circumstances around her disappearance, followed by the long struggle by family, in particular her eldest brother Guido, to get action from authorities into finding what really happened to Elisa. If you don't know the full story, I won't spoil it for you, but suffice to say that despite having a viable suspect from day 1, Elisa's family were repeatedly put off and let down by the apathy and incompetence of law enforcement, plus the legal and financial resources of the suspect's powerful family. This is a powerful story about a grieving family's struggle for justice, and how they never gave up, even in the face of insurmountable odds. Truly heartbreaking...

Per Elisa: the story of Claps Elisa's Case" is a gripping and emotional true-crime series that keeps you hooked from start to finish. The storytelling is powerful, blending real footage, interviews, and dramatizations to bring Elisa's story to life. The attention to detail and deep investigation make it both heartbreaking and eye-opening. It's a must-watch for anyone interested in true crime, as it not only sheds light on a tragic case but also highlights the importance of justice. The series is well-paced, deeply moving, and a testament to the perseverance of those seeking the truth. Highly recommended!

Per Elisa is a cinematic work of a significantly higher caliber compared to most contemporary Italian productions.

The performances of the lead actors are noticeably more refined and polished than the typical Italian standards.

Gianmarco Saurino (Gildo) pleasantly surprised me, while Giulio della Monica (Danilo Restivo) perfectly embodied Restivo's personality. He effectively portrayed the villain, managing to be genuinely detestable to the audience.

It's definitely worth watching, especially because it highlights-perhaps for those who haven't realized it yet-that Italian authorities are far from a guarantee of justice. Moreover, the absurd Italian bureaucratic system only adds to the picture of the Italian "justice" apparatus: a massive state machine that is slow, paralyzed, corrupt, and easily corruptible, tangled in its own inefficiency, and more often than not causes more harm than good.
