"Il ritorno" tells the story of a young man who needs to return to Italy from Germany when a close member of his family dies. Back in Italy he is confronted with the ghosts of his past and his present and has to make some important decisions.
The film has the typical feeling of any German tv drama. Enough emotions to keep you at least mildly interested but no so much that anyone could seriously get hurt. It is more or less feel good cinema for people that lead a rather boring life themselves. However, producers managed to write the plot carefully enough to keep the audience invested with the characters and one can not say that nothing happens or that the film is not entertaining.
All in all this is not a gamechanger or something special but it also avoids the worst mistakes and feels okay in the end.
