Keys to the House, The

Aroview: Eloquent Italian drama directed by Gianni Amelio (OPEN DOORS) following a distant father attempting to reconnect with his disabled son by accompanying him to Berlin for medical tests.

Managing to steer clear of the sentimental pit-falls of its subject material, this subtle drama focuses on the realities of the situation and gleans its charm from studied minute moments. Disabled actor Andrea Rossi is particularly poignant in his depiction of the ailing son.
