Italian adaptation of Ferrante's "The Lying Life of Adults" trailer

"I found myself in a story that wasn't mine. It never really started. And no one ever bothered to finish." Netflix has unveiled the first trailer for The Lying Life of Adults, a miniseries adaptation of Elena Ferrante's bestselling novel of the same name. The novel debuted in 2020 and became instantly popular, one of Ferrante's latest hits. Her other novel became The Lost Daughter last year. The 6-episode Italian-language series directed by Edoardo De Angelis stars Giordana Marengo as Giovanna, whose turbulent transition from childhood to adolescence against the backdrop of 1990s Naples drives the plot. A young girl in search of her true reflection in a divided Naples: the Naples of the heights, which wears a mask of refinement, and the Naples of the depths, a place of excess and vulgarity. Along with Marengo, the series also stars Valeria Golino as her aunt Vittoria, along with Alessandro Preziosi, Pina Turco, Azzurra Mennella and Rossella Gamba. Makes Naples look extra wild and crazy!! Take a look.

Here is the first trailer (+ poster) for the Netflix series The Lying Life of Adults, from YouTube:

The search for a new face, after the happy one of childhood, oscillates between two inbred Naples who nevertheless fear and hate each other: the Naples from above, which has given itself a beautiful mask , and the one below, which claims to be excessive, trivial. Giovanna oscillates between high and low, sometimes tumbling, sometimes climbing, bewildered by the fact that, above or below, the city seems unanswerable and without escape. The lying life of adults is a mini-series directed by Italian filmmaker Edoardo De Angelis, director of the films Mozzarella Stories, Perez, Indivisible and The Vice of Hope before, as well as other TV work. It is based on the bestselling novel of the same name by Elena Ferrante. With texts by Ferrante, De Angelis, Laura Paolucci and Francesco Piccolo. Netflix will start streaming the series The Lying Life of Adults on Netflix from January 3, 2023 at the start of the new year. Who is interested? Do you look good?
