Modern Films releases the brand new trailer for Maura Delpero’s award-winning film, Vermiglio. Coming soon to UK & Ireland cinemas.
Modern Films has released the new trailer for the UK and Ireland release of Maura Delporo’s (Maternal) award-winning film VERMIGLIO. Long-listed for the Academy Award® for Best International Feature Film, Vermiglio will open at cinemas on 17 January 2025.
PREMISE
In 1944, in a mountain village high up in the Italian Alps, war looms as a distant but constant threat. Cesare Graziadei (Tommaso Ragno), the local schoolmaster and his wife Adele (Roberta Rovelli) have eight living children. Including Lucia (Martina Scrinzi), Ada (Rachele Potrich), and Flavia (Anna Thaler).
The arrival of Pietro (Giuseppe De Domenico), a Sicilian soldier who has deserted from his unit, disrupts the dynamics of Cesare’s family. Changing them forever. During the four seasons marking the end of World War II, Pietro and Lucia, the eldest daughter, are instantly drawn to each other leading to an unexpected fate. As the world emerges from tragedy, the family will face its own.

A SWEEPING AND INTIMATE FAMILY CHRONICLE
Vermiglio is a story of children and adults. Deaths, births, disappointments and rebirths as each new season waxes and wanes. This sweeping, yet intimate, family chronicle was inspired by Delporo’s personal and family recollections of the house and community where her father grew up. It became a box-office sensation when it opened in Italy in September. Becoming the top Italian independent film of 2024, outperforming Luca Guadagnino’s Bones and All. And Alice Rohrwacher’s La Chimera.

Vermiglio opens in UK & Irish cinemas on January 17th, 2025.
