The Italian Family Drama That's More Like a Warning Than a Comedy The Fire Within You, an Italian comedy drama directed by Edoardo De Angelis, wears its heart on its sleeve.
The film follows Angela, a widowed matriarch who takes over her son's kitchen on Christmas Eve and unleashes a torrent of vitriol and bile upon her family.
Vanessa Scalera shines as Angela in an operatic performance that is both thrilling to watch and unsettling due to the rest of the cast being relegated to supporting roles.
