The world premiere of Paolo Sorrentino’s La Grazia starring Toni Servillo and Anna Ferzetti will open the 2025 edition of Venice Film Festival.
The film will screen in the Sala Grande at the Palazzo del Cinema (Lido di Venezia) on Wednesday, August 27. The festival runs until September 6.
La Grazia is written and directed by Paolo Sorrentino, and produced by Fremantle-owned The Apartment, Numero 10 and PiperFilm, which will distribute the film in Italy.
Mubi owns worldwide rights excluding Italy, with the Match Factory handling international sales.
Sorrentino was last in Venice four years ago with The Hand Of God, which won the Silver Lion grand jury prize. La Grazia is his seventh collaboration with Servillo.
Venice director Alberto Barbera said: “Paolo Sorrentino’s return in competition comes with a film destined to leave its mark for its great originality and powerful relevance to the present time.”
