Vermiglio, the Mountain Bride tells the story of three sisters, Lucia, Ada and Flavia: they’re no longer children but not yet women either in the final year of the world war, when a single gunshot signals the end of their innocence. “It’s the story of how the lives of one teacher’s family change forever upon the arrival of a fugitive soldier”, producer Santiago Fondevila Sancet previously revealed to Cineuropa (read our interview here). “The story is told from the perspective of the three daughters, charting their metamorphosis as they’re forced to grow up quickly after meeting this deserter. The war is always in the background and the film focuses on all those people – elderly folks, children and women – who didn’t go to the front but were still impacted by the war”.

The film is produced by Cinedora together with RAI Cinema, in co-production with Charades Production (France) and Versus Production (Belgium), and with the support of the IDM South Tyrol Film Commission, the Trentino Film Commission, the Italian Ministry of Culture, Eurimages, the CNC – World Cinema Fund, the Ile de France region, Paname Distribution, and the Wallonia-Brussels Federation. International sales are entrusted to Charades.

Stand-out names on set include director of photography Mikhaïl Krichman - the long-term collaborator of Andrey Zvyagintsev (Il ritorno, Leviathan [+lee también:

Vermiglio, the Mountain Bride enjoyed support from the Italian Ministry of Culture, the IDM South Tyrol Film Fund and the Province of Bolzano when the movie was still in the development stage. The project was subsequently selected for three international workshops - Torino Film Lab, the Mediterranean Film Institute’s Film Workshop 2 and Berlin’s Nipkow Programm – earning itself two trophies: the ArteKino International Award and the Coprocity Award (read our news). The film is currently undergoing editing in Brussels.
