Terraferma (film)

Terraferma is a 2011 Italian drama film directed by Emanuele Crialese, who co-wrote the screenplay with Vittorio Moroni.

After witnessing several deaths, Filippo changes his mind and helps a family (a mother, a little boy and a newborn baby) adrift at the Mediterranean sea to arrive at the Italian mainland.

[10] Jay Weissberg of Variety described it as "a well-made movie with no pretension but also no crying need to be at a major film festival.

"[11] Deborah Young of The Hollywood Reporter called it "a morally passionate social drama, muted by overly familiar storytelling.

"[12] Gary Goldstein of the Los Angeles Times wrote, "The thematically rich production is grounded in deep moral and emotional reflection.
