Giuliana Del Punta

Rehearsal for a Sicilian Tragedy

John Turturro goes back to the land of his ancestors.

Femminile, singolare

25-year-old aspiring artist Vera shares a flat in Rome near the Colosseum with friends Amedeo and Clelia. One rainy afternoon, Vera is standing in front of her wardrobe before. She has an appointment with a man who could solve all her problems. She has to get dressed and pulls out all her clothes. Each piece of clothing evokes a memory or a particular moment in her life. In this way, her search for something to wear, transforms itself into a nostalgia trip. In the end, Vera acquires a new understanding of herself and the world. She learns that to express truly-lived feelings through art is what really matters to her.
