Our take

Widely considered to be Italian director Alessandro Comodin’s breakthrough film, this dreamlike, rural fable boldly combines personal history with woozy folklore. Shot on 35mm amid the evocative wildness of northern Italy, Happy Times Will Come Soon ushers us into a beautifully enigmatic new world.
