Everything Calls for Salvation (Tutto chiede salvezza)is an Italian drama series streaming on Netflix. It is directed by Francesco Bruni, starring Federico Cesari.

Premise

A young man spends a week in a psychiatric ward, where he meets five other patients and must contend with doctors and cynical nurses.

About the Series

In seven episodes we follows Daniele’s stay in the psychiatric and treatment ward, one episode a day. He has landed there after a wild night out in the town and with amnesia he does not recall anything that led him to that place.

With a good premise, and very character driven, we are introduced to a group of characters, each with their disorder. The script is built solidly, and flows, and allows us to follow the protagonist’s development in this part of his journey. The performances are good, and convincing.

The photography and cinematography in ‘Everything Calls for Salvation’ do not take center stage in this series, and it does not require it either, given the narrative structure that leans entirely on the characters and their stories.

Our Opinion

Guided by the characters in the stories, and the development of its protagonist throughout, there are no big frills cinematically speaking. This is a series for those who are in the mood to watch an account purely for the story’s sake.

Release Date

October 13, 2022.
