	Themes and Motifs in the Cinema of Francesca Archibugi
		Archibugi does not presume to bring stylistic innovations, but her cinema is reliable in the narrative – a sort of fresco of urban middle-class family life, painted with the strokes of her heart.
		Archibugi’s cinema can be viewed as a critical reading of her experience as a political activist in both the feminist movement and the communist party.
		In 1989 Archibugi in Verso sera observes the cross-gender and cross-generational interplay in the disintegration of the family nucleus, especially when the Bruschi family’s life is animated by the mother’s escapes and returns, abandonment and re-appropriation of her parenting role.

	Eye - Italian renaissance - 06.20.02
		Whether this move squelches creativity or spurs it remains to be seen, but judging from this year's Toronto Italian Film Festival (June 19-23), there are at least a couple filmmakers who should prevail.
		The story shuffles from the well-meaning deputy mayor and his family to the sausage factory boss, his preteen daughter, her intense best friend, their lovelorn schoolteacher and an art restorer from England, pausing to observe old relationships unravel and new ones develop in the temporary quarters the villagers share while bracing for the next aftershock.
		Archibugi sneaks in some wry social commentary between subplots, such as when a truckload of Barbie dolls arrives as a misguided corporate donation.
