Two superstars like Chaterine Deneuve and Julianne Moore will open the 79th Venice International Film Festival in the Sala Grande of the Palazzo del Cinema tomorrow at 7pm.
The first of her will receive her Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement during the evening, while Moore is present as president of the jury.
An evening broadcast live on Rai Movie conducted by actress Rocío Muñoz Morales.
Many guests, including the President of the Chamber Roberto Fico and the Minister of Cultural Heritage Dario Franceschini, but no official dinner for the third consecutive year.
And this in the sign of the particular historical moment, between the pandemic and the war in Ukraine, which impose a tone of sobriety.
On the international jury front, in addition to Moore, there will be: Mariano Cohn (Argentina) director, screenwriter and producer;
our Leonardo Di Costanzo director and screenwriter;
director Audrey Diwan;
the Iranian actress Leila Hatami;
Kazuo Ishiguro (Japan-Great Britain) writer and screenwriter and Spanish director, screenwriter and producer Rodrigo Sorogoyen.

the Polish director, Jan P. Matuszynski;
the Portuguese Ana Rocha de Sousa, director, screenwriter and artist;
US actress Tessa Thompson and Rosalie Varda, French producer and costume designer.
Following the inauguration ceremony, the film WHITE NOISE, written and directed by Noah Baumbach, with Adam Driver, Greta Gerwig, Don Cheadle, Raffey Cassidy, Sam Nivola, May Nivola, Jodie Turner-Smith, André L.
Benjamin and Lars Edinger.
Distributed by Netflix, the film, with its dark and sometimes apocalyptic tones, seems truly perfect for our time.
On stage are the attempts of a contemporary American family to address not only the worldly conflicts of daily life, but also the universal mysteries of love and death, and the possibility of happiness in an uncertain world.
WHITE NOISE is based on Don DeLillo's book of the same name, written for the screen and directed by Baumbach himself.
