Little White Lies

The Hand of God

Directed by PAOLO SORRENTINO

Starring FILIPPO SCOTTI, TONI SERVILLO, TERESA SAPONANGELO

Released 19 NOVEMBER

Paolo Sorrentino loves breasts. This is striking to anyone who has watched , or , in which naked female flesh is as integral to his set decoration as whooshing dolly shots are to his cinematic language. Amongst other things, is the story of the patient zero of boobs, which belong to Patrizia (Luisa Ranieri) aunt to the Chalamet-esque protagonist, Fabietto Schisa (Filippo Scotti). This Naples-set coming-of-age story is a portrait of the artist Sorrentino as a young man, before and after a tragedy of worst-possible-nightmare-so-couldn’t-really-happen proportions replaces boisterous family life with a lonelier path.
