Guadagnino's Gaze
To celebrate Luca Guadagnino's latest film, Challengers, this month we shine the spotlight on two remarkable films from his body of work in the series GUADAGNINO’S GAZE. In anticipation of this new film exploring the dynamics of love and competition, we present his successful film Call Me by Your Name, which delves into the complex emotions of young love in an idyllic Italian setting. Additionally, we highlight Io Sono l'Amore, a family drama that unveils an emerging love story within the walls of a wealthy Milanese family. All three films underscore Guadagnino's talent for exploring deep human emotions, each in a unique way that deeply resonates with the viewer.
