Italy, 2023 – 118 minutes

Set in post-World War II Rome and shot in expressive black-and-white, the film tells the story of Delia, a housewife trapped in a violent marriage and a rigid patriarchal system. On the surface, the film is laced with humor and family life, but beneath lies a sharp critique of gender inequality, normalized abuse, and societal complicity. As Delia secretly imagines a different future for herself and her daughter, the film moves from domestic realism to symbolic liberation. C’è ancora domani draws from history to highlight the continuing relevance of women’s rights, making it not only a moving cinematic experience but a call to action for contemporary audiences.

This poignant documentary unveils the hidden crisis of sexual violence within Sápmi, the Indigenous Sámi homeland that spans across Sweden, Norway, Finland, and Russia. Through a tapestry of survivor testimonies, archival footage, animation, and poetic narration, the film offers an intimate yet collective portrait of how violence, silence, and shame have shaped generations of Sámi women. Director Liselotte Wajstedt, herself of Sámi descent, creates a work that is as much about resilience as it is about pain. The film breaks taboos and exposes how state neglect, racism, and internalized norms have compounded the harm. Tystnaden i Sápmi also contributes to broader global conversations about Indigenous rights, the legacy of colonialism, and the healing power of storytelling.
