About A True Story
Giulio and Alessio are two gay guys in their twenties who meet in Rome during a fiery month of August. Despite being very different, they are attracted to each other. Alessio is only staying in the capital for the weekend. This short term relationship will bring to light ancient wounds and important abandonments, forcing the two to face an unexpected tenderness and the blossoming of an overbearing and unprecedented feeling.
Directed by Mariano Lamberti, A True Story leans on a strong ensemble — Giulio Guerrisi, Alessio Bisaccia, Grazia La Ferla — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2025.
