Description
Set among the upper classes in turn-of-the-millennium Milan,
I Am Love opens with a formal lunch party in which ailing patriarch Edoardo Sr celebrates his birthday by passing the family business over to his son Tancredi and grandson Edoardo Jr.
Tensions soon begin to show beneath the smooth, controlled veneer of the Recchi family as Tancredi's wife, Russian-born Emma, succumbs to the inelegant forces of passion and unconditional love.
