Italian writer-turned-director Ludovica Rampoldi’s clandestine romance “A Brief Affair” — which features a stellar local cast including Pilar Fogliati (“Madly”), Adriano Giannini (“Supersex”) and Valeria Golino (“The Morning Show”) — has scored a North American distribution deal with Philadelphia–based indie outfit Breaking Glass Pictures.
Breaking Glass, which is run by industry veteran Richard Wolff, inked the deal with True Colours’ head of sales Francesca Tiberi. Blending thriller, drama and romance tropes with an overall ironic tone, “A Brief Affair” marks the directorial debut of Rampoldi, who is a prominent Italian screenwriter.
