Synopsis
To Chiara (A Chiara, 2021) is an Italian drama from Jonas Carpignano you can watch online on iFILM. The Guerrasio family gathers in a small Calabrian town to celebrate the eldest daughter's 18th birthday — a warm, loud night where 15-year-old Chiara has no reason to suspect a thing.
The next morning her father vanishes. The family's explanation doesn't add up, so Chiara starts digging on her own. The closer she gets to what her relatives actually do for a living, the harder it becomes to choose the kind of future she wants. Swamy Rotolo carries the lead, surrounded by her real-life family acting alongside her rather than trained professionals.
Carpignano shoots again in Gioia Tauro in southern Italy, keeping the camera tight on faces and skipping any musical push: this is a coming-of-age told entirely from a teenager's point of view as her illusions fall away. It premiered at Cannes in the Directors' Fortnight. A raw, honest pick for anyone who loves unsentimental European arthouse. Stream To Chiara online on iFILM.
