Daniele’s illuminating
documentary explores the life of Marta Abba, the muse and leading
actress for the Nobel award-winning Italian playwright Luigi Pirandello
(Six Characters in Search of an Author), through the eyes of actress Margherita
Peluso. The starting point for the film, which features the actress
retracing Abba's footsteps in Italy and Princeton, was a dense correspondence
between the two that reveals his tormented passion for the Milanese actress,
who with her interpretations was able to spread and promote Pirandello's
theatre throughout the world. (Italy, 2025, 72 min., color, DCP)
