Vado a riprendermi il gatto (I'm going to take back the cat) is a 1987 Italian romantic comedy-drama film directed by Giuliano Biagetti.
Plot
Alceo always lived in solitude, working the land (his only company was a cat), when one day he meets Ester, a girl younger than him. The two like each other and Alceo decides to take her to his cottage. Partly for his shady and grumpy character, partly for his deep-rooted habit of living alone, Alceo soon gets tired of his partner. When Ester decides to leave, Alceo would like to compensate her with money: she instead asks him for the cat. Some time later Alceo realizes that loneliness weighs too much on him: he returns to Ester to take her home but, during the journey, to those who ask him where he is going, he answers sardonically to "go and get the cat".
