Marcello Mio
(Gala)
Christophe Honoré
This is the story of a woman named Chiara. She’s an actress, the daughter of Marcello Mastroianni and Catherine Deneuve, and for one summer, when her own life is in turmoil, she decides she’d rather live her father’s life. She dresses like him, talks like him, breathes like him, and she does it so forcefully that the others around her start to believe it, calling her âMarcelloâ.
â The screening will be followed by a Q&A session with director Christophe HonorĂ©
