_there39s-still-tomorrow-trailer-in-uk-cinemas-on-26th-april.webp "The Italian box office sensation THERE’S STILL TOMORROW (C’È ANCORA DOMANI) will be launched across Vue’s UK and Ireland cinemas from 26 April, with tickets now on sale.<br/><br/>The comedy-drama, which is lead actor Paola Cortellesi’s directorial debut, has broken Italian records becoming the most-watched 2023 release, performing better than Barbie or Oppenheimer by box office. It also sold out a record number of screenings at its recent London preview at Cinema Made In Italy festival. The film is now the third-largest Italian film in the last 10 years and one of Italy’s top 10 highest grossing films of all time, not to mention the largest Italian film directed by a woman, in history.<br/><br/>Set in Rome in 1946 on the eve of women gaining the right to vote, the film plays out against a backdrop of poverty, domestic violence and toxic masculinity, centring around one woman’s determination to break the cycle of abuse. A contemporary take on classic neorealism, the film counters its tough themes with unexpected comic moments and an optimistic outlook around female empowerment. It features a modern soundtrack including music by the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion.<br/><br/>In post-war Rome, a city torn between its newfound liberation and the miserable aftermath of the Second World War, Delia (Paola Cortellesi) is seemingly resigned to her traditional role of wife and mother. Her husband Ivano (Valerio Mastandrea) is the undisputed master of the family. Delia sees her daughter Marcella’s (Romana Maggiora Vergano) engagement to her middle-class boyfriend, Giulio (Francesco Centorame), as Marcella’s chance to avoid the same fate as her. Everything suddenly changes when a mysterious letter arrives and fires up Delia’s courage to overturn convention and start wishing for a better life – and not just for herself.<br/><br/>The move into feature film distribution marks a first for Vue, an exhibitor, which operates 92 cinemas in the UK and Ireland and is the largest privately owned cinema operator in Europe. Until now, Vue has primarily released pre-school programming, concerts and big screen sports events but following the incredible success of THERE’S STILL TOMORROW in Vue’s Italian sites, Vue saw an opportunity to bring its customers even more choice.<br/><br/>\")
