Nick Vivarelli International Correspondent France’s UFO Distribution has acquired French rights to Venice Horizons entry “An Endless Sunday” by first-time Italian director Alain Parroni from Fandango Sales.
The film will segue from Venice to Toronto where it screens in the fest’s Discovery section. Set on the outskirts of contemporary Rome, this coming-of-age drama – which is based on the director’s own personal experiences – involves a trio of young characters named Alex, Brenda and Kevin. “An Endless Sunday” has been described by Venice artistic director Alberto Barbera as “a story of nihilism and rebellion” that “could become the manifesto of a lost generation.” “For my generation, narrating our adolescence and coming-of-age is a matter of language,” said Parroni in his director’s statement.
His film questions “the languages and media that new generations are using, as well as their values in relation to the world around them.
