## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

Giuseppe Tornatore here attempts the big, multi-generational family drama. It follows Peppino from his 1920s childhood in Sicily through his Communist Party activism and family life. It is, if nothing else, certainly a very long film.

**Mood tags**: foreign-gem, bittersweet, epic
