Starting May 22nd, in theaters: “Holly,” the new film produced by the Dardenne Brothers!
28 April 2025
“Holly – Hope is Among Us” is coming to Italian theaters from May 22, distributed by Filmclub Distribuzione by Minerva Pictures!
Presented in competition at the Venice International Film Festival and produced by the Dardenne Brothers, a hallmark of excellence for European auteur cinema, the film is the third installment in Fien Troch’s ideal trilogy on adolescence, following “Kid” and “Home” (which won Best Director at the 2016 Venice Horizons section).
The film follows 15-year-old Holly, whose life is turned upside down by an unusual event: one morning, she calls her school to announce that she will stay home for the day due to a strange feeling. Shortly after, a terrible fire breaks out at the school, killing several students. The community, shaken by the tragedy, comes together to cope with the trauma, and Anna, a teacher intrigued by Holly and her premonition, invites her to join her volunteer group.
Holly’s presence seems to bring calm, warmth, and hope to everyone she meets, but soon more and more people start seeking her out for her cathartic energy, asking for more and more from her.
See you in theaters starting May 22!
