Kiss Me Again

In the heart of contemporary Rome, a circle of former lovers and longtime friends navigates the uneasy space between who they were a decade ago and who they have become today. The city’s bustling streets and intimate cafés serve as a backdrop for conversations that linger over wine and linger in memory, creating a mood that is both warm and wistfully restless. The film moves with a natural, almost observational rhythm, allowing the audience to feel the subtle undercurrent of yearning that threads through everyday moments.

At the center of this tapestry are Carlo and Giulia, whose long‑running divorce has settled into a fragile coexistence. Giulia now shares a home with Simone, a steady presence who offers comfort while she balances motherhood, while Carlo finds himself drawn to the youthful optimism of Anna, a twenty‑five‑year‑old whose energy contrasts sharply with his own lingering doubts. Their interactions highlight a gentle push‑and‑pull between duty and desire, hinting at the possibility of renewal without spelling out any resolution.

Around them, the ensemble expands: Paul wrestles with personal darkness, seeking solace in a tentative bond with Livia, the wife of the recently returned Hadrian, whose own past shadows the present. Marco appears to have built a stable life with Veronica, yet beneath the surface lie unspoken anxieties about impending fatherhood. Alberto returns from a formative trip, still searching for a pace that matches his internal clock, while Lorenzo, a young artist, drifts into the orbit of the group, adding a splash of creative impulsiveness. Meanwhile, Adriano steps into a new, understated role within the friends’ circle, underscoring how responsibilities shift and evolve.

Together, these intertwined lives paint a portrait of contemporary love and loyalty, where each character quietly measures the weight of commitment against the allure of freedom. The film’s tone is intimate and reflective, inviting viewers to sit at the table with the cast and contemplate the delicate balance between past attachments and future possibilities.
