Details
60 mins, 1922, Italy

Rosé Angione, one of the actresses who studied at Italy’s first female film director Elvira Notari’s acting school, plays the part of Nanninella, a young girl exploited and abused by her father, whom she maintains with her waitress salary. 

Forced to marry a man she does not love in a desperate attempt to save her beloved from being accused of murder, Nanninella is destined to a tragic end, and the film’s moving tone is brought to a violent climax: stabbed on her wedding day in her bridal gown in the finest tradition of Neapolitan melodramas.

- Monica Dall'Asta

Presented with the support of the Italian Cultural Institute in London and in partnership with South West Silents.

Introduced by Prof. Ruth Glynn from University of Bristol.
