After the success of the first week of programming and the awards for Best Director and Emerging Actor at the 2023 Venice Film Festival, the theaters of Io Capitano increase to 256.
After the recognition obtained at the Venice International Film Festival (the Silver Lion for best director and the Marcello Mastroianni Award for emerging actor) and the warmth with which it was welcomed during its first week of programming, 01 Distribution is happy to announce that I captain is preparing to add from tomorrow, Thursday 14 September, 56 new rooms, for a total of 256 screens. A result that confirms the attention with which the public immediately rewarded Matteo Garrone’s film and its young performers, Seydou Sarr and Moustapha Fall, who together with the director are currently meeting spectators from all over Italy.
I Captain: a shot from the film
“The Italian cinema audience has once again managed to surprise us – declares Luigi Lonigro Director of 01 Distribution. Matteo Garrone’s wonderful film was greeted with applause and standing ovations at the end of each screening. After reaching around 100 thousand spectators in the first week of programming, from tomorrow another 56 new cinemas will be added to accompany Io Capitano to an increasingly wider audience. The decision to present the film in the original version with subtitles on all Italian screens as it was presented at the Venice Film Festival proved to be a winning choice rewarded by public approval.”
