Vanessa Kirby wanders around New York City without any memories in the trailer for Italian Studies
The feature comes from Gimme The Loot director Adam Leon
From filmmaker and writer Adam Leon, the trailer for Italian Studies offers a glimpse into the perplexing, dream-like film about dislocation, connection, and the nature of identity. Oscar-nominated actor Vanessa Kirby, known for her work in Pieces Of A Woman and The Crown, stars as a writer who has troubles piecing herself and her memory back together while adrift in New York City.
The official logline reads: While visiting NYC from her native London, writer Alina Reynolds inexplicably loses her memory and suddenly becomes unmoored and adrift on the streets of Manhattan with no sense of time or place—or even her own name.
As Alina’s consciousness swings between imagined conversations, fragments of her own short stories and the bustling city around her, she finds an anchor in charismatic teenager Simon (Simon Brickner).
