Mid-August Lunch

A middle-aged man has to look after his mother and three other women during Italy's biggest summer holiday, the Pranzo di Ferragosto. The other women include the mothers of his landlord and doctor, who are prepared to waive his debts in exchange for performing this service. Unwillingly left in charge of this motley crew of elderly ladies, he tries his best to cope with what will be a very unusual couple of days.
