Critically Acclaimed 'Vermiglio ou la Mariée des montagnes' Set for March 19 Theatrical Release

Maura Delpero's award-winning film explores family dynamics, societal norms, and resilience in a rural Italian Alpine village during World War II.

The film, directed by Maura Delpero, is set in the Trentino region of the Italian Alps during the winter of 1944, near the end of World War II.
It follows a Sicilian deserter, Pietro, who finds refuge with a local family and marries their eldest daughter, Lucia, disrupting the family dynamic.
The narrative delves into themes of family, tradition, and the constraints of societal and religious norms, with the snowy Alpine setting symbolizing emotional and social confinement.
Praised for its austere yet intimate portrayal, the film has drawn comparisons to works by Jane Campion and the Taviani brothers for its formal and thematic elements.
Having won the Grand Prix du jury at the 2024 Venice Film Festival, the film will debut in theaters on March 19, 2025.
