ITALY Releases

Claudio Bisio and the gorilla

by 

"One day, I went to my favourite bookstore in Milan, and they recommended the novel La cura del Gorilla by Sandrone Dazieri. As I was reading it, I realized that it was perfect for a film". Thus Claudio Bisio explains the birth of the film La cura del Gorilla, which is being released in Italy by Warner Bros. Italia on February 3.

Produced by Maurizio Totti (Colorado Film), the film was directed by Carlo A. Sigon, a commercials director helming his very first feature. The film is about Sandrone (Bisio), the “gorilla”, who has had a strange kind of split personality since childhood. The first personality is good and funny, whereas the second is rational, cold and violent.

Along with Bisio, the cast also includes Stefania Rocca, Bebo Storti, Antonio Catania, Kledi Kadiu, Gisella Sofio and Oscar-winning American actor of Italian descent Ernest Borgnine, who is starring in a non-English language film for the first time in his career.
