Francesco Scianna
The teenage son of two fathers makes a documentary film about his parents but is surprised when a real-life plot twist occurs in his family.
A falsely accused nobleman survives years of slavery to take vengeance on his best friend who betrayed him.
Elena (Kasia Smutniak) and Antonio (Francesco Arca) seem not to be made for each other. They are too different in terms of character, life choices, worldview, and the way they relate to others. They are total opposites. However, they are overwhelmed by a mutual attraction they’re trying hard to avoid; but to which they succumb to. This dramedy on relationships also gets a very credible performance from Paola Miraccione, who plays the tragic, albeit funny, character Egle.
Set in Italy in the 1970s, VALLANZASCA is the true story of the Italian underworld’s most infamous outlaw.

Vallanzasca and his gang wrested control of the Milan underworld with a string of high profile robberies, kidnappings and murders. In the process, he captivated the public and earned the nickname ‘il bel Renè’ – for his devilish charm and handsome face. Arrested multiple times, his daring escapes from prison enraged the government, angered his rivals and fed his legend.
