FRED’s Chiara Nicoletti meets Andrea Pallaoro and Charlotte Rampling, director and protagonist of Hannah, the last italian film to be presented in competition at the 74th Venice International Film Festival. Pallaoro, at his second film after Medeas, confirms that the film’s script was written for Charlotte Rampling so she was the only one considered for the role. Charlotte Rampling describes her character’s journey through torment, denial, loneliness until a new beginning.

Hannah is the intimate portrait of a woman’s loss of identity as she teeters between denial and reality. Left alone grappling with the consequences of her husband’s imprisonment, Hannah begins to unravel. Through the exploration of her fractured sense of identity and loss of self-control, the film investigates modern day alienation, the struggle to connect, and the dividing lines between individual identity, personal relationships, and societal pressures.
