Plot

Pietro Paladini and his brother Carlo, a fashion designer, rescue two women from drowning. At the same time Pietro's wife dies unexpectedly at home. After the funeral, Pietro falls into a state of Quiet Chaos, which is marked by spending a lot of time with his daughter Claudia. The manager is absent from his work and spends his days waiting in the park, which is opposite the school of his daughter. All the while, the widower stays very calm on the outside and is a focal point for his wife's sister Marta (Valeria Golino), his brother and co-workers who are affected by the merger of his group. It is the rebirth of a man who was once a tough manager.

Reception

Stanley Kauffmann of The New Republic called Quiet Chaos "thoughtful and rich."[2]

gollark: Well, parsing would be parsing to an AST or something.
gollark: > uhm<@!330678593904443393> ?
gollark: Also because it lets me use arbitrary CSS, that's fun.
gollark: The "parser" does not actually *parse* it, just renders to HTML.
gollark: MediaWiki is fun because its markup is basically unparseable.
