      Italic Southern Style Promotional Video

      Pretty standard comedy. Although the plot is so simple that it can be summed up in one sentence, recently it has become more and more found that the film has a complete plot, and the characters can pass the scene without dancing. Besides, the jokes in this film are lighthearted and humorous, neither vulgar nor blunt. There is sunshine, beach, beauty bonus, um, okay~

      the story is simple

      Starting: The male protagonist wanted to take the whole family to the city (Milan), but...

      "South, North"

      "South, North"

      are two highly similar scripts, France's 2008 "Welcome to the North Bienvenue chez les Ch'tis" and Italy's 2010 "Welcome to the South Benvenuti al Sud (2010)".
      The male protagonist who works in a small place under the State Post Bureau, because he wants to go to a big city, does not hesitate to disguise his disability.

      Italian style film, I feel good to see.

      The southern part of Italy, in the eyes of northern Italians, is a dirty, cholera, and chaotic "Kosovo". From the north to the south, it is as terrifying as entering a bandit den. You must wear a bulletproof vest, and your relatives will see you off with two lines of tears. But in fact, the southern town of Italy is very cute! The picturesque scenery, the blue water is as clear as Maldini's eyes; the life is very slow, basically maintaining the rhythm of eating and playing whenever you want;...

      embarrassing movie

      There are 3 Welcome to the North but only one Welcome to the South

      It's not easy to make a movie with the southern-northern prejudice that is half a day's drive away from the free shipping area in China. To be honest, how much climate difference can this make?

      After watching this movie, I couldn't calm down for a long time

      If you haven't seen France's Welcome to the North (2008)

      But after watching this film, I just feel embarrassed by Hai Xingbo for a long...

      In love with the town in the movie

      I wanted to see the original French version, but I saw this Italian remake.

      It's fun to play disabled. However, this bridge section is more common in Hong Kong-produced films.

      There is a big traffic jam on the highway, and then the hot pot (barbecue) is played, the same as the domestic Golden Week.

      Italians play shit too. All right.

      The most fun is that the male protagonist's wife comes to visit, and the neighbors act for a while. climax.

      The fireworks were...

    Movie plot

    Alberto ( Claudio Biccio ) is the head of the post office in a small town in northern Italy. His family is not harmonious, and his wife Silvia (Angela Fenocello) always puts a lot of pressure on him. Alberto was willing to pay anything for the job that was transferred to the big city of Milan, even pretending to be disabled. But his plan failed, and as punishment, he was transferred to a small town in the southern region of Campania.
