"Outside of my books, what am I? A woman not unlike many others." The Match Factory has released an international promo trailer for the Italian documentary titled Ferrante Fever, which already opened in Italy last year but is still looking for a US distributor. The doc film is about the mysterious writer who goes under the name "Elena Ferrante", known as one of the most successful Italian authors of our time. Her novels – from Troubling Love to The Story of the Lost Child – have captivated millions of fervent fans. But the true identity behind this pseudonym has become one of the most "incendiary literary mysteries of recent decades." Who is she, really? Durzi's documentary explores the depths of Ferrante's oeuvre, and attempts, in his words "to stimulate reflections on the particular reasons for Ferrante's success, without being seduced by the provocation of making a 'gossipy' documentary about her unknown identity."
