Mamma Redolfina
82-year-old Redolfa Negrini lives in the village of Borgonovo. In spite of an often tragic life, she has lost none of her good humor and a certain joy in living. Four of her 11 children died before reaching adulthood. In 1956, her husband died of cancer. Despite the pressures of her in-laws to remarry, she decided to raise her children on her own. Eight years after the death of her husband, she found herself pregnant again after having an affair. Aware that this would complicate her life even more, she still chose to have the child, supported by her children and a good friend, Alberto Giacometti, who would be the godfather to her 12th child.
