A CHIARA
Acclaimed director Jonas Carpignano (A CIAMBRA) returns to the Calabrian region of Italy to tell the story of a teenager, Chiara, who uncovers deadly secrets about her supposedly close-knit family. When her father mysteriously disappears, Chiara embarks on a search that leads her into the clutches of the local mafia. Wielding a dynamic camera with an assured neorealist hand, Carpignano weaves a gripping coming-of-age narrative. Winner, Directors' Fortnight, Best European Film, 2021 Cannes Film Festival.
