The Italian President’s term is drawing to a close. But before he steps down, he must decide on a highly emotional law regarding euthanasia and finds himself confronted with two petitions for clemency. Toni Servillo, who portrays the President, was awarded Best Actor at the Venice Film Festival for this role.

His performance is defined by love, doubt, responsibility, and moral depth. The weight of the impending decisions plunges him into a profound moral dilemma, how to reconcile the reasons of state with his own conscience. Seeking guidance, he confides in his closest confidante, his daughter Dorotea.

La Grazia is an intimate exploration of the choices we make for our lives and how they affect the fates of others. Sorrentino’s signature visual language and the atmospheric soundtrack make the film a visually and emotionally stunning experience that confronts us with the existential question:

To whom do our days belong?

Opening in German theaters March 19.
