The Venice Film Festival will present the programming for its 77th edition, which, barring complications, will be the first major international film event to hold a physical edition after the coronavirus crisis.
Previously announced titles include Chloé Zhao’s traveling drama “Nomadland,” starring Frances McDormand, which will be screened in Venice and Toronto simultaneously on September 11, in both cases preceded by virtual performances.
The first match out of competition will be the anatomy of Italian director Daniele Luchetti from a marriage drama “Lacci” (“The Ties”) (pictured) starring Alba Rohrwacher (“Happy as Lazzaro”) and Luigi Lo Cascio (“The Traitor “) as the couple in the center of the film.
The virtual press conference is scheduled to start at 11am CET. This post will be updated live as the movies are revealed.
