The destinies of two families are irrevocably tied together after a cyclist is hit off the road by a jeep in the night before Christmas Eve.

Our Take

7.9
Anne Michaud

Human Capital is a rich and absorbing tale of two families tied together by love, money and a hit-and-run accident. One family is wealthy, the other struggling to get by in the days after the 2008 economic meltdown. Human Capital dexterously contrasts the social calculations the characters make about who can afford to step outside the lines of law and morality. The story is told from different perspectives, a device that serves to give the tale and the characters greater depth. In Italian with English subtitles.

Sunshine on my shoulders

I liked it. It was different. If you are put off by the cheesy, gum-chewing Dad in the first 15 minutes hang in there because as things move along his role is not as prominent and it gets better. I promise…
