“Monica Bellucci studies the movements and physicality of Anita Ekberg”, says in the video Antongiulio Panizzi, director of The girl in the fountain. “It is a scene that represents the film very well, the dialogue between two divas from different eras”.
Mixing the plans between fiction and documentary, the film imagines the preparation of a biographical film in which Monica Bellucci will have to impersonate Anita Ekberg, protagonist of the famous scene of the Sweet life by Federico Fellini in which he bathes in the Trevi fountain. The girl in the mountain was presented at the Torino Film Festival. At this link a calendar of the next screenings.
Antongiulio Panizzi is an Italian TV director and author. He directed the documentary My Way – The rise and fall of Silvio Berlusconi (2016).
