Dir. Paolo Sorrentino, 2025, Italy, 133 mins. In Italian with English subtitles. Cast. Toni Servillo, Anna Ferzetti, Orlando Cinque.
From Oscar and BAFTA award-winning director Paolo Sorrentino, La Grazia is a sweeping exploration of love, duty, and personal freedom.

Love. Doubt. Responsibility. Fatherhood. Ethics. These are the forces that shape Mariano De Santis, the outgoing President of Italy. As his tenure nears its end, De Santis faces wrenching decisions, both political and deeply personal. Amid these moral quandaries, he must confront his own conscience and seek guidance from those closest to him. An intimate reflection on identity and memory, La Grazia traces the indelible imprint one leaves behind through family and actions. Shot with Sorrentino’s signature poetic eye and enriched by an evocative, immersive soundtrack, it is a cinematic experience as visually sumptuous as it is emotionally resonant.
