Courtesy Locarno Film Festival Locarno Film Festival artistic director Giona A. Nazzaro has recruited some big names – including Isabella Rossellini, Darren Aronofsky, Olivia Wilde, and Caleb Landry Jones who, in various guises, are expected to be making the trek to the Swiss temple of indie cinema this year.
On Thursday, Nazzaro unveiled his lineup of more than 200 titles — almost half of which are world premieres — that will comprise new works by a mix of known auteurs such as South Korea’s Hong Sangsoo, India’s Gurvinder Singh, Canada’s Denis Côté, Romania’s Șerban, and Germany’s Isabelle Stever and promising newcomers including Giovanni Tortorici whose sophomore feature “Ketticè” is produced by Luca Guadagnino.
