Synopsis

"La voce di Laura" is a tribute to the legendary text "The human voice" by Jean Cocteau. (the last, relase in Venice is directed By Pedro Almodovar and performed by Tilda Swinton) But unlike the other versions (Anna Magnani/Rossellini, Sophia Loren, Simone Signoret, Liv Ulman) in this short the woman, in her last phone call to the person she loves, is not the obvious lover of a married man. In a twist in the middle of the story, we discover that from the top of the phone there is not a man but another woman. And become too an intelligent opportunity to address very topical issues such as rainbow families, same-sex marriages, adoption, stepchild adoption, surrogacy, gestation for others. And this way the short becomes a proof of a famous italian actress by Rosaria De Cicco (wich shooted many films with the famous director Ferzan Ozpetek's "Le fate ignoranti" "La finestra di fronte" ...) This intense short ending with an intense 11' sequence shot An exciting short tribute to a text written over a hundred years ago, however, captures the deepest intentions... Cocteau was in fact homosexual and probably this type of staging (about problem between same sex person) is closer in spirit to those brought to the screen by many other famous versions
