There's Still Tomorrow (Italian: C'è ancora domani) is a 2023 Italian period comedy-drama film, co-written and directed by Paola Cortellesi in her directorial debut.[4] Set in postwar 1940s Italy, it follows Delia breaking traditional family patterns and aspiring to a different future, after receiving a mysterious letter. It stars Cortellesi, Romana Maggiora Vergano, Emanuela Fanelli, Valerio Mastandrea, Francesco Centorame, Vinicio Marchioni and Giorgio Colangeli. There's Still Tomorrow was shot in black-and-white in the neorealist style of the 1940s and 50s.
The film won three prizes at the Rome Film Festival, the Nastro d'Argento of 2024[5] and is the most successful film at the Italian box office in 2023,[6][7] and nominally the 10th highest-grossing film in the country of all time.[8] Italian film critics praised its direction and screenplay in dealing with issues related to feminism and patriarchy, as well as the acting, particularly of Cortellesi, Fanelli and Mastandrea.[9][10] It received a leading 19 nominations at the 69th David di Donatello, and won 6 awards: Best New Director and Best Actress (for Cortellesi), Best Supporting Actress (for Fanelli), Best Original Screenplay, the David Youth Award and the David Audience Award.[11]
