Nick Vivarelli International Correspondent Maura Delpero’s intimate epic “Vermiglio,” which recently won the Venice Film Festival’s Silver Lion Grand Jury Prize, has been designated as Italy’s candidate for the best international feature film category of the 2025 Academy Awards.
The drama, which is set at the end of World War II in an Alpine village where the arrival of a soldier causes disruption in the dynamics between three sisters, had its North American premiere after Venice in the special presentations section at Toronto.
In her Variety review, critic Jessica Kiang called “Vermiglio” “quietly breathtaking,” going on to note that the film “unfolds from tiny tactile details of furnishings and fabrics and the hide of a dairy cow, into a momentous vision of everyday rural existence in the high Italian Alps.” “Vermiglio” marks Delpero’s follow-up to her first feature “Maternal” that takes place in an Argentinian refuge for teenage mothers run by nuns and made a splash on the festival circuit, will be released in the U.S.
by Sideshow and Janus Films. The “Vermiglio” producers are Francesca Andreoli, Leonardo Guerra Seràgnoli, Delpero and Santiago Fondevila Sancet.
