Venice Calling – Perth Festival

"As charming as its chaotic family." - Spielfilm

Daggy as hell but forever upbeat, Bernard and Annie Chamodot are parents to Emile, a gawky 15-year-old who can’t take much more of Dad’s ultra-lame antics, Mum dying his hair or their majorly embarrassing spendthrift ways. When a wealthy classmate he’s keen on invites him to a concert in Venice, Ma and Pa insist on tagging along. Boasting another scene-stealing performance from Benoît Poelvoorde (Sink or Swim), Venice Calling is a comedy for anyone who’s been or had an over-keen parent or who remembers getting too old for crap family holidays.
