The movie will premiere at the Venice Film Festival’s Giornate degli Autori on August 31st, 2024.
Citarella (1981) is a film director and producer, born in La Plata, Argentina. Since 2005, she has been a member of El Pampero Cine. This independent organization over the last 20 years has experimented not only on an aesthetic level but also on ways of producing and showing films.
She is known for “Trenque Lauquen”(2022), “La mujer de los perros” (2015) and “Ostende” (2011).
The Women’s Tales project is an initiative of the brand by the creative director Miuccia Prada, in which international directors with different intellectual backgrounds express, through their short films, their own vision of the concept of femininity.
Discussing the project, the house said in the notes which accompanied the announcement, “Cinema can bring together, suddenly, the most remote, the most distant worlds, those we know the least about. What emerges from this combination is magical, beautiful and mysterious. Like a great and immense discovery”.
