...und das Leben geht weiter

This movie is a successful parody of TV-serials with their incoherent succession of dramatic events. By increasing the speed of these events a little bit more, a very comic effect is attained. The story is situated in the Italy of around 1980, with all the fuss about the Red Brigades. Mother just starts to think that her daughter in law is somewhat secretive and not very nice. And see: almost immediately it turns out that she is a leftist urban guerilla who gets arrested because of her participation in a bomb attack. But that is quickly forgotten, because other events speed on! Life goes on (la vita continua)!
