Synopsis
Hungry Hearts (2015) is an Italian-American drama you can watch online on iFILM. Directed by Saverio Costanzo, the film pairs Adam Driver and Alba Rohrwacher as two strangers who meet by chance in New York City, fall fast, marry, and then discover that love alone doesn't hold a family together.
After their son is born, Mina becomes consumed by extreme beliefs about what her baby should eat — beliefs she treats as protection, not harm. Jude watches the child deteriorate and has to decide how far he's willing to go. The film keeps both perspectives in focus without offering an easy villain. That's what makes it so hard to watch and so hard to stop.
At the Venice Film Festival, Rohrwacher took the Best Actress prize and Driver the Best Actor — a split that happens maybe once a decade. Costanzo shoots the whole thing in close quarters, which only adds to the suffocating tension. Stream Hungry Hearts (2015) online on iFILM.
