San Diego Italian Film Festival Presents: "Siccità" (Dry), Directed by Paolo Virzi An imagined three-year drought serves as the point of departure for the latest by Paolo Virzì, a satirical ensemble drama that features a top-notch cast and a clever way with social critique.

Virzì slyly observes these sometimes likable, sometimes repellent people, giving a wryly ironic film about the post-Covid world and the vanity of humans in the face of global catastrophe.
