British distributors Curzon Artificial Eye have sent us an official trailer for their upcoming Blu-ray release of acclaimed Italian director Nanni Moretti's Mia Madre (2015), starring Margherita Buy, John Turturro, Giulia Lazzarini, Beatrice Mancini, and Nanni Moretti. The release will be available for purchase on December 7.
Synopsis: Palme d'Or winning director Nanni Moretti (The Son's Room, The Caiman, We
Have a Pope) returns with Mia Madre, a playful, reflective and intelligent drama.
Set in present-day Rome, the story follows Margherita, a filmmaker attempting to
balance her work with her family life. Pulled between the demands of a difficult
Hollywood actor (John Turturro, in a scene-stealing role), her teenage daughter
and the slow decline of her mother's health, she finds herself struggling to hold
everything together. But much like the director's profession itself, she must stay in
control right until the final call…
Winner of numerous awards, including the Ecumenical Jury Prize at Cannes 2015,
Mia Madre is a subtle, tender and carefully balanced exploration of love, loss and
the pressures of modern life.
