Check out this new trailer for an upcoming film titled Made In Italy. Liam Neeson and Micheál Richardson lead the cast of the film which will start to roll out on VOD in some territories from next month. James D’Arcy directs.
Here’s the official synopsis:
Made In Italy is a heart-warming father son story set in glorious Tuscany about bohemian London artist Robert (Neeson), who returns to Italy with his estranged son Jack (Richardson) to make a quick sale of the house they inherited from his late wife. Neither expects to find the once beautiful villa in such a state of disrepair… Renovations go badly, with father and son soon finding themselves at odds. Robert’s comical lack of DIY experience leads him to seek help from some colourful locals including the no nonsense Kate (Duncan), an ex-pat making her living selling villas who quickly captures his attention. For Jack, the state of the house seems to mirror his search for memories of happier times with his mother. He soon falls for Natalia (Bilello), a vivacious young Italian chef, who restores both body and soul with delights from her local trattoria – until the pair find their developing relationship in jeopardy from Natalia’s jealous and threatening ex-husband. As Robert and Jack painstakingly restore the villa to its previous glory, they also start to mend their relationship. The future may now look quite different and surprise them both.
Valeria Bilello, Lindsay Duncan, Marco Quaglial, Gian Marco Tavani, and Helena Antonio are also amongst the cast.
IFC Films are releasing the film in the North American territories from 7th August where it will also play in cinemas and drive-ins. I can’t seen any visibility of a UK release as yet, but I’ll keep you posted. Here’s the trailer.
