The Berlin Film Festival said
Monday that Laura Bispuri's Figlia Mia (Daughter of Mine) is
among a first batch of films named as in the running for its
2018 competition.
Bispuri's second work stars Valeria Golino and Alba
Rohrwacher.
It is about a child who is split between two maternal
figures, Tina (Golino) a loving mother who has a symbiotic
relationship with the child, and Angelica (Rohrwacher), a
fragile, instinctive woman.
The movie will get its world premiere at the festival, which
takes place February 15-25.
Films by Gus Van Sant, Benoit Jacquot, Alexey German Jr,
Thomas Stuber, Philip Groning and Małgorzata Szumowska have also
been named among the contenders.
