What does an authoritarian, atheistic father do when his son wants to become a priest? In this Italian box-office hit, the proud patriarch goes undercover to investigate and bring down the charismatic priest who he believes has brainwashed his son and upended his family. By turns hilarious and tender, this father-son comedy won the best new director prize at last year’s Donatello Awards, Italy’s Oscars.
