The True Story of Luisa Bonfanti is a particular film that moves on the border between the documentary and the fictional film. In fact, using the narrative mechanism of the "mockumentary", La Vera Storia by Luisa Bonfanti wants to tell the golden age of Italian cinema and a season of political struggles between the sixties and the early eighties. Luisa Bonfanti is a fictional character who wants to represent the many women who dreamed of success in the glittering world of film. In her path, Luisa meets some of the real protagonists of that unrepeatable season such as Ettore Scola and Citto Maselli. The film mixes original footage, with repertoire material from film archives to reach the truth of an era and an unforgettable character.
