Kidz

Kidz (Figli, 2020) is an Italian comedy directed by Giuseppe Bonito that you can watch online on iFILM, starring Valerio Mastandrea and Paola Cortellesi. Sara and Nicola have a working marriage, a six-year-old daughter and lives that are busy but manageable — until a second pregnancy tips the whole balance.

Nothing catastrophic happens. That's rather the point. The chaos is entirely ordinary: doubled logistics, halved sleep, decisions that once felt straightforward now trigger negotiations. Screenwriter Mattia Torre, who died before the film was released, based the story on his own stage play, and the writing carries the precision of someone who has actually been in these rooms. Friends played by Stefano Fresi and Valerio Aprea provide a running parallel — their domestic disasters a funhouse mirror of what Nicola and Sara are navigating.

Mastandrea and Cortellesi share a screen chemistry that reads as genuinely lived-in rather than performed. The film is the kind of comedy that lands hardest on people who have a toddler at home — recognisably, uncomfortably accurate. Stream Kidz (2020) online on iFILM.
