As details emerge of the events leading up to the accident the lives of the well-to-do Bernaschi family privileged and detached will intertwine with the Ossolas struggling to keep their comfortable middle-class life in ways neither could have expected. Dino Ossola (Fabrizio Bentivoglio) in dire financial straits anticipates the birth of twins with his second wife (Valeria Golino). Meanwhile Dino s teenage daughter s relationship with hedge-fund manager Giovanni Bernaschi s playboy son complicates an already tricky social dance of status money and ambition. Paolo Virzi s taut character study deconstructs the typical linear narrative observing transformative events from each character s perspective. The result is a nuanced account of desire greed and the value of human life in an age of rampant capitalism and financial manipulation. ...Human Capital (2013) ( Il capitale umano )
