June 1 - 23, 2017

In Marco Danieli’s debut feature, Sara Serraiocco (Salvo) stars as Giulia, a smart young Jehovah’s Witness whose lifestyle is put to the test when she meets Libero (Michele Riondino), an ex-con and son of a recent convert. As much as Giulia wants to pursue a future in mathematics (which goes against her religion), it’s her unexpected attachment to Libero that pulls her from her community. Sensitively portraying the religious community, Danieli’s first feature is an assured, wonderfully acted, and unpredictable celebration of individuality. Worldly Girl premiered at last year’s Venice Film Festival, where Danieli won the Brian Award (given by the Italian Union of Rationalist Atheists and Agnostics!) and stars Serraiocco and Riondino both won Pasinetti Awards for their performances.
