Quiet Chaos DVD

If Mohammed won't come to the mountain...

Shining light of European cinema, Nanni Moretti (Dear Diary, The Son's Room) brings his trademark intelligence and wit to his starring role in the subtle and gentle film Quiet Chaos.
Having in one momentous summer's day rescued a woman from drowning and simultaneously lost his wife, Pietro's (Moretti) life is changed in a moment. One morning he drops his adorable young daughter at school and spontaneously tells her he will wait until she returns. He sits in his car, wanders in the park and has coffee at a nearby cafe. And so he does, surprisingly to all, day after day. Pietro's friends, family and colleagues come to visit him in the park, only to have their own dramas melt away in the face of Pietro's invincible calm.
Set against the charming changing of the seasons in Rome, Quiet Chaos is interwoven with great charm and wry comedy and embellished by the award winning soundtrack featuring Rufus Wainwright, Radiohead and original composition.
The film is based on the eponymous novel by Sandro Veronesi which was the recipient of Italy's highest literary award, The Strega Prize, placing the author in the company of Primo Levi, Umberto Eco & Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa.
