Three Brothers

Sinopse

In a farmhouse in southern Italy, an old woman, the matriarch of an Italian family, dies. Her husband summons their three adult sons, each of whom are facing difficult personal problems, back to their farmhouse from the cities where they now live. One of their sons, Raffaele, a judge living in Rome, is considering presiding over a terrorism case for which he would risk assassination. Another son, Rocco, who lives in Naples, is religious and works as a counselor at a boys' correctional institute, so that he can fulfill his dream of helping troubled teenagers. The third son, Nicola, who lives in Turin, is a militant factory worker involved in a labour dispute, and is dealing with a failed marriage. Each of the men grieves in his own way, while also wrestling with their other emotional issues.
