About Fiabe metropolitane
Five untitled episodes: a businessman visits prostitutes before returning to his wife; an extra falls asleep at the cinema; a farmhand faces an Eastern European bully; a woman foresees the death of her lover; a small-time criminal feels the eyes of the mafia on him.
Directed by Egidio Eronico, Fiabe metropolitane leans on a strong ensemble — Anna Bonaiuto, Antonella Ponziani, Paolo Graziosi — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1998.
