Paola Cortellesi's work "There is Still Tomorrow" was the most-watched film of the year in Italy last year, ahead of Barbie and Oppenheimer. The heroine of the story is Delia, a mother of three living in Rome in the second half of the 1940s. The city is caught between the hope of liberation and the financial difficulties caused by the war that has just ended. Day after day, Delia does the impossible, working at home and at work, tidying the family nest, looking after the children and elderly family members, putting up with the tantrums of her war-torn husband.
