The movie was directed and written by Oscar-winner Robert Bobby Moresco and produced by our studio’s co-founders Andrea Iervolino and Lady Monika Bacardi. The premiere is scheduled for October 23, with Grillo, Sorvino, Byrne and Moresco attending it.

 In addition, a presentation by the Italian-Serbian Film Festival took place at the Auditorium Parco della Musica, on October 16th, to discuss opportunities, cooperation possibilities, financing and incentives between Italy and Serbia in the field of production, post-production, co-production and the distribution of films in Serbia. Gabriella Carlucci is the founder and director of the Italian-Serbian Film Festival and at the presentation, she was be joined by Peter Nalli, Head of Animation and VFX (ILBE & IES) via Zoom.

Peter presented the story and accomplishments of Iervolino Studios as the perfect embodiment of good practices and relations that have been established between Italy and Serbia, and as the result of a successful cooperation between these two countries in the field of art, culture, and cinema. Gabriella and Peter were joined by:

• Goran Aleksić, Serbian Ambassador in Italy
• Tatjana Garčević, Minister Counsellor of the Serbian Embassy
• Gordan Matić, Head of Film Center Serbia
• Miroljub Vučković, Editor at the Department of International Relations, Film Center Serbia
• Rade Vojnović – Advisor to the Serbian Ministry of Culture
• Luciano Sovena – President of the Roma Lazio Film Commission

Rade Vojnović, advisor to the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Serbia, said that Serbia’s investment and incentive policy have enabled our country to become one of the most attractive destinations in the region for the production of audio-visual works.

He also stated that these incentives encouraged large production companies which produce complex and very demanding audio-visual works to engage the services of domestic production companies today, in order to get closer to the Serbian market.

The Italian-Serbian Film Festival itself will be held later this month, from 25th to 28th October.
