FROM FATHER TO DAUGHTER (Exclusive U.S. Premiere, Foreign Language, Italy, Di Padre in Figlia)

This captivating family saga is richly told through the historical changes experienced in Italy from 1958 to the 1980s, including its economic boom and women empowerment. Di padre in figlia is the epic story of the Venetian Franza family, the owners of a distillery in Bassano del Grappa, and focuses on the patriarch Giovanni Franza (Alessio Boni, The Best of Youth, The Tourist), who stakes everything on his son, as well as on his three enterprising daughters who want to conquer the world. One of the three female heirs, played by Cristiana Capotondi (The Worst Week of My Life, Notte prima degli esami), will go on to carry on the family business, as she faces struggles to survive in a male-dominated world and tries to hold her own against all odds.
