Luigi Celeste, known as Gigi, is 20 years old. He lives in suburban Rome in the early 2000s, with his mother Licia and her brother Alessandro. He frequents a skinhead group where he can vent his anger and find that sense of family that he has always looked for. Gigi hasn't seen his own for almost ten years his father, Franco, a man who made his childhood a memory of pain and loss. Franco is the prototype of the father and the devious, ambiguous husband, a man who poisons everything he touches, but which releases a charm that all family members cannot completely free themselves from. When Franco leaves prison, for Gigi, his mother and his brother, it will be time to deal with the one's past and one's future. Familia is a dark and genre-tinged psychological fresco it tells of a desperate love, that of a son who tries to change his father and that of a father who asks his son to be stopped. Gigi's is a story that reaches the bottom of the abyss and the comparison with oneself to be reborn, whatever the cost.
