The De Filippo Siblings | I fratelli De Filippo

Italy 2021 142′
Early 1900s. The siblings Eduardo, Peppino and Titina live with their mother, Luisa De Filippo. There is no father, or rather, he is hiding under the guise of “uncle” Eduardo Scarpetta, the most famous actor and playwright of his time. While Scarpetta did not recognize his three children, he introduced them to the world of theatre. At his death, the De Filippo family had no claim to his estate, but Scarpetta did pass on his talent to them, something his legitimate son Vincenzo did not inherit.
