"The lifelong shame and trauma experienced by the victims of childhood incest are grippingly dramatized by Cristina Comencini, consummate mistress of Italian family drama, in "Don't Tell," probably her most successful film. More than in her previous tales of dysfunctional families ... she lightens the weight of angst with well-designed subplots, secondary characters and moments of tender humour." - Deborah Young, VARIETY
Sabina (Giovanna Mezzogiorno) is beautiful, enjoys her job and loves her boyfriend. But is she truly happy? For some time now strange nightmares have tormented her, and finding herself pregnant forces open a disquieting window to her own inner life: her memories, her adolescence, her family, bourgeois rituals at once both strict and reassuring. But these are only the surface. From deeper down something much darker and more disturbing is about to be revealed.
