It shows Tuscany in its most contemporary light as a region that excites, moves, sparks energy and lures visitors from all over the world.
The anthological trailer features scenes from Ron Howard’s Inferno, starring Tom Hanks; Michael Bay’s Six Underground, produced for Netflix; TV series Medici. Masters of Florence; Il Peccato, by Russian director Andrey Koncialowsky; as well as excerpts from Florentine productions such as Federico Bondi’s Dafne, a family tale centred around a warm-hearted girl with Down’s syndrome; Francesco Fei’s La regina di Casetta, about a girl leaving her mountaintop for a life in the city; and I delitti del Barlume, directed by London-born, Pisa resident Roan Johnson.
The For Your Eyes Only trailer will be presented on August 25 at 6pm at Caffè della Versiliana during a conversation between Stefania Ippoliti, director of Toscana Film Commission and the director Fabrizio Guarducci.
