What Is Towards Evening About?

The premise of Towards Evening without spoilers.

Italy, 1977. Retired widower Professor Bruschi leads a regimented life grounded in his communist ideals, constantly clashing with his son’s free‑spirited existence and his son’s hippie girlfriend, Stella.

Stella later returns to the elegant villa, demanding the child’s return, forcing Bruschi to confront his rigid ways.
