An elderly woman, the matriarch of an Italian family, dies on a farm in Southern Italy. Her husband, Donato, summons their three adult children from the cities where they now reside, bringing them back to the farm where each grapples with challenging personal dilemmas. Raffaele, one of the sons and a judge in Rome, contemplates presiding over a terrorism trial, exposing himself to the danger of an attack. Another son, Rocco, resides in Naples, devout and working as an educator in a youth detention center, driven by his desire to assist troubled youth. Nicola, the third son, lives in Turin and works as a militant factory worker embroiled in a labor dispute while navigating a troubled marriage.
Each man copes with his grief in his unique manner while simultaneously confronting other emotional hurdles. The sons reflect on the past and envision the future; Raffaele grapples with visions of his downfall, Rocco dreams of rescuing Naples' youth from crime, drugs, and corruption, and Nicola seeks solace in the embrace of his estranged wife. As they collectively mourn, Donato and his young granddaughter, Nicola's child, delve into the rhythms of farm life.
Three Brothers has an approval rating of 100% on review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, based on 5 reviews, and an average rating of 7.5/10.
