The Onetti brothers have previously visited the giallo genre with 2013/14’s stunning Sonno Profondo, electrifying fans and bring the hope that this hard to replicate style of film making would be making a comeback, and it seems we are in luck with their new film Francesca with the release of this amazing trailer! I am a HUGE fan of Sonno Profondo and I have a feeling that Francesca is going to be even better!
Synopsis: It’s been 15 years since the disappearance of little Francesca, daughter of the renowned storyteller, poet and dramatist Vittorio Visconti, and the community is stalked by a psychopath bent on cleaning the city of “impure and damned souls”. Moretti and Succo, questioned by the ineffectiveness of the police force, are the detectives in charge of elucidating the mystery surrounding these “Dantesque” crimes. Francesca seems to have returned, but she is not be the same girl who everyone knew…
