Review of The Anto War

The Anto War (1999)
7/10
Quintessentially genuine.
18 December 2023
The asphyxiating atmosphere of the Italian province, the discomfort of being young and feeling useless, the desire of rebellion, the idealistic dreams of youth: The War of the Antò is the story of four punk youngsters from Montesilvano, a small town in the province of Pescara, central Italy, at the beginning of the '90s. They are all called Antò and the provincial life in which they live is too much for them, they can't handle it. A sincere choral tale of an Italian region often overlooked by cinema and/or entertainment literature. Acted very well by the four young protagonists, the film is enriched by funny dialogues and the amusing inflection of the Abruzzo dialect.
