MASCARPONE Australian Premiere Dir – Alessandro Guida, Matteo Pilati, Italy, 2021, 101 mins Courtesy – Vision Distribution Italian with English subtitles
Our 30-something protagonist Antonio’s main drive in life is to make the perfect tiramisu and be an even more perfect househusband. But unbeknownst to Antonio, a crisis is lurking just around the corner.
Without a moment’s notice, he finds himself dumped, homeless and penniless- a disastrous trifecta! Codependency cold turkey hits Antonio hard, and he’ll have to learn the tough way that building yourself up after your life takes a nosedive is far easier said than done.
Backed by a fabulously queer ensemble cast, Mascarpone is an often hilarious, unapologetically sexy, refreshingly relatable look at one man’s personal journey as he stumbles along the road toward emotional recovery post break-up
