Actor and writer/director Kim
Rossi Stuart's new film Tommaso premiered out of competition
Tuesday at the 73rd Venice Film Festival.
The drama is a about a neurotic actor with abandonment
issues - played by Rossi Stuart himself - and an unbounded
interest in sex.
"I would like to have them all and to take them on the
street like an animal," the lead character tells his therapist.
"Look for your inner child," the therapist replies.
Cristiana Capotondi, Camilla Diana, and Jasmine Trinca
co-star as the women in Tommaso's life, in which he seems doomed
to keep repeating the same mistakes.
In order to resolve his inner turmoil, Tommaso must
ultimately come to terms with the source of his trauma - the
mother who abandoned him in childhood.
The movie is a sequel to Rossi Stuart's directorial debut,
a 2006 drama about a dysfunctional family, in which Tommaso was
a little boy.
