Margherita Mazzucco

The Sanremo Music Festival is the most popular Italian song contest and awards, held annually in the town of Sanremo, Imperia, Italy, and consisting of a competition amongst previously unreleased songs. The Festival was the inspiration for the Eurovision Song Contest.

When the most important friend in her life seems to have disappeared without a trace, Elena Greco, a now-elderly woman immersed in a house full of books, turns on her computer and starts writing the story of their friendship.

In the Milan of the economic boom, Maria Boccuzzi –aka Marinella –is a young Calabrian in search of redemption. At just 16 years old, she runs away from home for love, but that choice leads her down a path of solitude, marginalization and broken dreams. Abandoned and without ties, she ends up in prostitution, continuing to pursue her desire to become a dancer. It is precisely that hope, never extinguished, that leads her to death at the hands of a mysterious man. Marinella will not have justice, but telling her story is an act of rebellion: a way to give her the dignity that life has denied her.

Assisi, 1211. Chiara is eighteen years old and one night she runs away from home to join her friend Francesco: from that moment on her life changes forever. With charisma and conviction, she breaks free from her family's constraints and stands up to the Pope himself. She fights for herself, for the women who join her and for her dream of freedom. The story of a Saint. The story of a girl and her revolution.

A unique portrayal of two young amateur actresses embarking on a journey that will forever change their lives as they star in the most eagerly anticipated new show of 2018, Elena Ferrante's My Brilliant Friend.
