The Italian period drama Primavera tells the story of two searching souls whose paths cross: Cecilia, a young and talented violinist and an orphan in search of her own identity, and composer Antonio Vivaldi, a man swept away by his creativity and Cecilia’s talent.
Venice, 18th century. Twenty-year-old Cecilia (Tecla Insolia) is a gifted violinist who has spent most of her life at the Ospedale della Pietà orphanage. Art has opened her eyes, but not the doors of the institution: it is the only place where she is allowed to perform, hidden behind a screen for wealthy patrons. Marriage seems to be her only way out. Cecilia’s life changes when a new violin teacher introduces her to the possibility of a different future. His name is Antonio Vivaldi (Michele Riondino). Under his guidance, she finds the courage to break free and pursue her own musical passion.
Primavera is based on the novel by Tiziano Scarpa and marks the feature-film debut of opera director Damiano Michieletto. The film was selected for the Toronto International Film Festival and won three David di Donatello Awards: Best Music, Best Sound and Best Costume Design.
