Joaquin Phoenix, Juliette Binoche, Pedro Pascal, Riz Ahmed and Guillermo del Toro are among a group of figures to have added their names to a letter condemning the film industry for its “silence” over the ongoing and deadly impact of Israel’s military campaign in Gaza.

The letter, published on the first day of Cannes and initially signed by more than 370 actors and filmmakers, also condemned Israel’s killing of Fatma Hassona, the protagonist of festival-bound doc “Put Your Soul in Your Hand and Walk.”

The new signatories also includes the likes of Rooney Mara, Jim Jarmusch, Omar Sy, Peter Straughan, Camille Cottin, Michael Moore, Boots Riley and Alice Rohrwacher.

The letter urged cinema — which it said was a “breeding ground for socially committed works” — to use its art form to “draw lessons from history, to make films that are committed” and to be “present to protect oppressed voices.”

Indiana Production plans to bring the fascinating life of Italian cinema legend Anna Magnani to the big screen, promising a candid look at one of the twentieth century’s most pioneering actresses.

The new film, “Anna,” will focus on Magnani’s revolutionary career in the late 1950s and early 1960s. It is directed by Alessio Cremonini and co-written by Cremonini and Magnani’s granddaughter, Olivia Magnani. The project seeks to convey the essence of an artist who transformed female representation in film.

Magnani’s cinematic voyage was memorable. She became international prominence with memorable parts in Roberto Rossellini’s “Rome, Open City.” She later won an Oscar for “The Rose Tattoo.” Her work with director Pier Paolo Pasolini on “Mamma Roma” solidified her image as a bold actor.

“Anna Magnani was not just an actress but a force of nature who rewrote the rules of cinema,” she said. He intends...

Exclusive: A biopic devoted to legendary Italian Rome, Open City and The Rose Tattoo actress Anna Magnani is in development at Indiana Production, the Milan and Rome-based company behind Netflix’s upcoming period drama The Leopard.

Entitled Anna, the production will be directed by Alessio Cremonini (On My Skin), who is also co-writing the screenplay with actress Olivia Magnani, grand-daughter of the late actress and daughter of her only son Luca Magnani.

The feature will focus on Magnani in a pivotal period of her life between the late 1950s and early 1960s, when the actress’s son was coming of age and she was embracing a new role as a mother in Pier Paolo Pasolini’s 1962 drama Mamma Roma.

Filming for Anna is scheduled to begin in 2025, with casting in the early stages for the role of Magnani and the many other famous figures from Italy’s film and artistic...

“Forest,” an Italian eco-themed animation film about deforestation, has scored some strong pre-sales for Rome-based True Colours at the Cannes Marché du film.

The still-in-production 3-D animation feature – the protagonist of which is a young mushroom named Fey – has been picked up for roughly 20 territories by Top Film Distribution which will distribute “Forest” in Ukraine, Cis, the Baltics, and Eastern European countries including former Yugoslavia, Bulgaria, Poland, Czech and Slovak Republics, Romania, and Hungary.

Helmed by Luca Della Grotta and Francesco Dafano, the film is produced by Italy’s Al One, the same team that previously spawned 2020 similarly themed animation feature “Trash” that sold in more than 30 countries.

“Forest” – which is the first animation title on the True Colours slate and a rare case of an Italian animation feature film – was presented last year as an in-development project at specialized co-production platforms including Cartoon Movie in the French city of Bordeaux.

Italian sales company True Colours has closed a raft of sales following Berlin’s European Film Market. Italy’s box office hit “La Stranezza” (“Strangeness”) got picked up for a dozen territories and queer romantic drama “Norwegian Dream” also sold widely, including to North America.

Directed by Roberto Andò, “Strangeness” (pictured) toplines Toni Servillo (“The Great Beauty”) as Nobel-prize-winning playwright Luigi Pirandello. This tragicomic period piece about how Pirandello found inspiration to write his masterpiece “Six Characters in Search of an Author” has been a sleeper hit at the Italian box office, coming from nowhere to pull more than €5.5 million ($5.8 million) and becoming the local 2022 box office champ.

Now “Strangeness,” which is produced by Bibi Film and Tramp Limited with Rai Cinema and Medusa, will be playing in: Spain (Alfa Pictures); Poland (Aurora Film); Portugal (Il Sorpasso); Argentina, Chile, Uruguay and Paraguay (Zeta Film); former Yugoslavia (Stars Media); Taiwan...

The Rome-based sales outfit has committed to focusing on more international titles this year.

Italy’s True Colours has unveiled its 2022 Cannes Marché slate, as it commits to focusing on more international titles this year.

The Rome-based sales outfit will start selling rights for Delta, Michele Vannucci’s second film after 2016 Venice Horizons debut I Was A Dreamer. The film, produced by Groenlandia and Kino Produzioni with Rai Cinema, is finished and looking for festival slots. The noir drama stars Alessandro Borghi and Luigi Locascio (both David di Donatello winners for On My Skin and One Hundred Steps, respectively) in...

Italy’s True Colours has taken sales on two new titles that it will introduce to international buyers at Rome’s Mia Market: “Prophets,” an Isis-themed drama by Alessio Cremonini (“On My Skin”) and “A Breath of Life,” a doc about a 97-year-old Italian transsexual woman named Lucy, who is among the few survivors of the Dachau Nazi concentration camp.

Both films are in post and will be presented as works-in-progress at Mia, the first in the “What’s Next Italy” section, the latter during Mia’s “Italian Doc it Better” session.

“Prophets” toplines Italian A-lister Jasmine Trinca (“Fortunata”) as Sara, an Italian journalist kidnapped in Syria by Isis while working on a wartime news report in 2015. She is held in captivity in the midst of a training camp by Nur, a young fighter, wife to a soldier of the Caliphate. Nur’s strong will to proselytize along with the...

The Italian director is in Apulia shooting his third fiction film, following the abduction of a journalist in the Middle East played by Jasmine Trinca. On My Skin by Alessio Cremonini, which thrilled audiences when it opened the Orizzonti section of the 2018 Venice Film Festival, was the first Italian film to have been released simultaneously in cinemas and on Netflix. It was a decision made by the movie’s producer and distributor Lucky Red which caused a fair deal of controversy and protests among cinema operators, who found themselves deprived of viewers at an already critical time for the market. Exploring the final days of young Stefano Cucchi who died after being assaulted in a Roman prison, Cremonini’s film went on to receive numerous awards on account of its director and screenwriter but also owing to the extraordinary performance delivered by its lead actor Alessandro Borghi (Romulus & Remus –...

The Berlin Film Festival‘s new leadership duo of Carlo Chatrian and Mariette Rissenbeek have revealed some of their new programming team. As anticipated there is a strong Locarno (Chatrian’s former festival) flavour. Chatrian has appointed a seven-member selection committee. Locarno’s former head of programming, Marc Peranson, will serve as head of programming and chair of the selection committee, which will also include three former Locarno selectors in the shape of Lorenzo Esposito, Sergio Fant, and Aurelie Godet. Also joining the committee will be programmer Verena von Stackelberg and author and curator Barbara Wurm. The new chief for the festival’s Panorama section will be Michael Stutz, a former Panorama curator. He takes over from Paz Lázaro, who will also be joining the selection committee.

Artistic director Chatrian and executive director Rissenbeek officially take office from outgoing boss Dieter Kosslick on June 1, 2019. They said, “We have different tasks,...

Netflix’s drama On My Skin also won three key awards.

Matteo Garrone’s Dogman won nine prizes from 15 nominations at Italy’s David di Donatello awards in Rome last night (March 27).

The drama, which first premiered at Cannes, won best picture, best supporting actor, best cinematography and best original screenplay.

Despite winning the prize at Cannes, its star Marcello Fonte missed out in the best actor category to Alessandro Borghi for his performance in Netflix’s drama On My Skin, which was eligible for the awards after it was briefly distributed in theatres. Alessio Cremonini’s drama based on...

Matteo Garrone’s gritty revenge drama “Dogman” was the big winner at Italy’s 63rd David di Donatello Awards, the country’s equivalent of the Oscars, taking home nine trophies Wednesday night from a field-beating 15 nominations.

Somewhat surprisingly, however, the sweep did not include a best-actor prize for Marcello Fonte, who had previously won that accolade at Cannes, where “Dogman” premiered, and more recently at the European Film Awards.

“Directing is important…but without great actors you don’t go anywhere,” said Garrone, who thanked Fonte and brought him up onstage.

“I started writing this movie 12 years ago,” Garrone added. “Then, while I was waiting to shoot ‘Pinocchio,’ I actually made it, and the result has gone beyond my expectations.”

Luca Guadagnino’s coming-of-age love story “Call Me by Your Name,” which went into the race with 13 nominations, left relatively empty-handed, winning awards for best adapted screenplay and original song.

With 15 nominations Matteo Garrone’s “Dogman” leads the pack of contenders for Italy’s David di Donatello Awards in a watershed year for the country’s top film nods that sees highbrow auteur titles reaping most of the David love just as local box-office grosses hit an all-time low.

Garrone’s gritty revenge drama is followed closely with 13 noms by Mario Martone’s “Capri Revolution,” about early 20th-century proto-hippies, and by Luca Guadagnino’s “Call Me By Your Name” (released late in Italy), and Paolo Sorrentino’s Berlusconi biopic “Loro,” both with 12 noms. Sorrentino however, unlike his colleagues, is not in the running for best picture or director.

Then comes Alice Rohrwacher’s pastoral fable on the ills of modernity “Happy as Lazzaro” and also police brutality drama “On My Skin” by newcomer Alessio Cremonini, both with nine noms and running in the main categories. Valeria Golino’s sibling bonding drama “Euphoria,...

Andrea Occhipinti says distribution strategy of Venice title has created tension between me and the exhibitors.

Lucky Red president Andrea Occhipinti has stepped down as head of the national association of distributors (Anica) after the controversial day-and-date release of Venice title On My Skin in both theatres and Netflix.

The film, produced by Lucky Red, was distributed in Italian selected theatres on the same day of its Netflix premiere, September 12. The decision caused an uproar from the national associations of exhibitors who refused to screen it.

Andrea Occhipinti, President of Italy’s film distribution association Anica, has resigned following the drama surrounding the recent day-and-date release of police brutality pic On My Skin.

Occhipinti’s distribution and production outfit Lucky Red sold the film to Netflix before it was set for a contentious Venice Film Festival debut. The well-respected industry vet explained his Anica exit in a statement [translated from Italian], “I decided to resign because our choice of distributing On My Skin by Alessio Cremonini simultaneously in theaters and on Netflix has created many tensions between the theaters who have screened it (few) and those who have chosen not to (many). The success of the film has increased these tensions.

“Although there were precedents in Italy and there is a wider heated debate at an international level, I do not want a purely corporate choice to be considered as the position of Anica distributors, given my role. In...

Andrea Occhipinti has resigned from his post as president of film distributors at Anica, Italy's leading film organization that represents Italy's producers, distributors and technical industries, following the very public feud between Venice and Italy's film exhibitors who were upset that the festival gave so much of its platform to Netflix.

In the latest salvo against Netflix from the European arthouse community the International Confederation of Art Cinemas (Cicae) has lashed out against Venice Film Festival Artistic Director Alberto Barbera for having Netflix titles screening in competition.

Cicae in a statement issued on Monday blasted Barbera for taking a different attitude than Cannes which earlier this year banned Netflix movies from competition since the streaming giant could not guarantee that they would be shown in French cinemas.

The three Netflix movies competing in Venice that Cicae is up in arms about are Alfonso Cuaron’s “Roma,” “The Ballad of Buster Scruggs” by the Coen brothers, and Italian director Alessio Cremonini’s police brutality drama “On My Skin.”

Cicae claimed their presence in the Venice competition “encourages practices that endanger an important sector of the film industry,” the statement said, adding that “cinema and television are different mediums” and also that “cinematic...

The International Confederation of Art Cinemas, Cicae, has spoken out against the Venice Film Festival's decision to screen films backed by Netflix in its official competition.

Alfonso Cuaron's Roma, the Coen brothers' The Ballad of Buster Scruggs and Alessio Cremonini's Italian crime drama On My Skin have all premiered in competition at this year's festival and will all be released worldwide on the streaming service. A fourth Netflix film, Paul Greengrass' terror drama 22 July, will debut in competition in Venice on Wednesday.

Director Alessio Cremonini painstakingly reconstructs the high-profile true-crime case of 31-year-old Stefano Cucchi, a former heroin addict arrested by the Italian military police for possession of drugs and beaten so sadistically he died in custody a week later, in On My Skin (Sulla mia pelle). As tensely focused as a thriller, the film is gripping from start to finish, which is surprising given the familiarity of the case in Italy. One of its main assets is rising star Alessandro Borghi, who lends searing credibility to the doomed youth with his low-class Roman accent and street wit, and he turns Cucchi’...

On My Skin is set to open on Netflix and in certain theatres.

Italian production and distribution company Lucky Red has rejected criticism from exhibitors regarding the simultaneous distribution of its Venice title Sulla mia pelle (On My Skin) on Netflix and in select theatres.

A few days after Alberto Barbera unveiled the complete programme of the 75th Venice Film Festival, Italian exhibitors issued a press release criticising the practice of simultaneously distributing movies both online and in theatres without having shared the strategy in advance with the theatres associations.

On My Skin is the only film in the festival that qualifies for the controversy,...

Italian distributor Lucky Red has responded to anger from local exhibitors that its Venice-bound film On My Skin (Sulla Mia Pelle) will screen on Netflix soon after its festival debut.

In a statement sent to me today, the distributor has said it is “proud” the drama will be shown in Venice and that the film’s near-day-and-date global release is an “extraordinary event” and a “big opportunity” for audiences.

The Italian-language film about police brutality is due to open Venice’s Horizons strand and get a global release via Netflix soon after on September 12. It is also due to have a theatrical component in Italy.

However, earlier this week, trade bodies repping local cinemas issued a strongly worded statement criticizing day-and-date releasing for its impact on traditional models. The statement also took a pop at Venice chief Alberto Barbera for condoning a shortening of the theatrical window.

Netflix made headlines recently when it was announced that the streaming giant would have 6 films premiering at the upcoming Venice Film Festival. While most of the news surrounded the new films from filmmakers Alfonso Cuaron, Paul Greengrass, and Orson Welles, Italy’s “On My Skin” flew under the radar. The new film from director Alessio Cremonini will have its day at Venice, and now, we have a first look at the drama.

In a surprise twist no one saw coming The Coen Brothers’ initial anthology series, The Ballad of Buster Scruggs, will be featuring at the 2018 Venice Film Festival as a full-length feature in the competition.

The film, which was declared a Netflix original, is made up of 6 of chaptered stories revolving around the American Frontier. As for chapter plot details, information is hard to find. Tim Blake Nelson stars as Scruggs alongside a cast that features names like Zoe Kazan, Liam Neeson and Tom Waits.

“We’ve always loved anthology movies, especially those films made in Italy in the Sixties which set side-by-side the work of different directors on a common theme,” the Coens said in a statement. “Having written an anthology of Western stories we attempted to do the same, hoping to enlist the best directors working today. It was our great fortune that they both agreed to participate.”

The festival's market event, The Business Street, got under way Wednesday and will run through Sunday.

Rome -- At its halfway point, the Rome Film Festival is putting memories of last year's event behind it with strong ticket sales, sold-out screenings and events, and a lineup that has much of the Italian capital talking.

Wednesday's highlights included an audience event with Wes Anderson and Roman Coppola, along with the world premiere of Hard to Be a God, the magnum opus from Russian auteur Aleksei German. German died in February, and his career honor Wednesday -- his widow and son were on hand to receive it -- made Rome the first international festival to give a career honor posthumously.

The Business Street, the festival's market event, also got under way Wednesday and will run through Sunday, when the festival concludes. Officials said the number of market badge holders was up 6 percent compared to last year.

In the last wave of Tiff announcements, it’s the Discovery section that we’re most curious about as it normally is loaded up with the rookies, many first-time and second time filmmakers breaking into world film festival circuit programming with genuine gems.

The final entry in Midnight Madness will be the world premiere of Alex de la Iglesia’s Witching & Bitching (Las brujas De Zugarramurdi) (Spain-France).

The Glenn Gould Studio will serve as a venue for various public and industry programming during the festival and will function as a main location for the Tiff Industry Conference, set to run from Sept 6-12.
