Sophia Loren, the icon
The life of Sophia Loren narrated by herself in the first person through repertoire materials from italian archives and from all over the world. Never seen before films with Italian and international radio and television interviews, commented by six Italian actresses who have a personal relationship of esteem and friendship with the Diva. Embellished by the photographic archive of LaPresse that only Loren has 8000 shots, Sophia! is the intimate and epic narration, of the birth and affirmation of a great actress, of the love for Carlo Ponti, of the flirtation with Cary Grant, of the devotion to Vittorio De Sica, of the unique friendship and professional complicity with Marcello Mastroianni, of the stubbornness with which she wanted at all costs to become a mother, of the victory of two Academy Awards, of being the last great Diva of international cinema and an icon of Italian excellence loved all over the world. A life told through images and words in an extraordinary and unprecedented emotional and narrative crescendo.
