Italian short ‘Letizia’ is now available to stream at GagaOOLala!
‘Letizia’ is a 18-minute-long short film that was released last year, and is directed by Francesco Manzato. It is an official selection of the 2022 Rome Independent Film Festival Best Italian Short Film. The short stars promising actors Letizia Manella and Daphne Scoccia.
Letizia, a young 16-year-old boxer, lives with her mother in a small town just outside Milan. After losing her job, her mum decides to move to Rome where she can be supported by her parents and of course, decides to take Letizia with her. The film concentrates on the last few days before Letizia moves away, paying particular attention to the relationship she has with Clara: an older girl who trains in the same gym as her. Just when she has to leave, Letizia is forced to reflect on how important this relationship with Clara is for her.
