Vittoria (2024) Open Roads 2025


Marilena Amato plays a version of herself, an older mother with three sons who is having reoccurring dreams where she hugs a young girl. This sets her off on a quest to find the girl in her dream and adopt her.

One part narrative and one part documenatary recreation VITTORIA is a good little film.  This is Amato's story and we are firmly focused on her, the result is an interesting character study of a woman searching for more.

That said the film may not play well with you if you can't connect to Amato and her quest. There were times when the film didn't connect to me. Yes, the ending go me emotional, but there were times when I wasn't sure I wanted to stay to the end.

Worth a look for those interested.
