Claudio and Elena live a modest life in Rome’s suburbs. He is a simple construction worker; she is raising their two children with another one on the way. When Elena passes away during labor, Claudio’s life changes forever – he will do anything to make a better life for his kids and triumph against the odds. Our Life is a drama straight out of life that examines subjects that trouble Europe – the financial situation and immigration. In a neo-neo realistic style and with an emotional performance by Elio Germano, Our Life is one of the most prominent Italian films of 2010.
