Bordighera for "La promessa dell'alba" comes back to the '30s

At Bordighera (IM) there's a past air. A leap back to the '30s: women with long skirts and hats and men with whiskers. This is the atmosphere created for the movie «La Promessa dell’Alba», a french belgian hungarian production that wants to bring in the cinemas the famous autobiographical novel by Romain Gray. Now the main role will be given to Charlotte Gainsbourg, next to Pierre Niney. They started the shots in the different sets in Bordighera, in the center, in front of and inside the ex Richetta shop, restored for the occasion. An important restyling intervention, inside and outside, interested also the ex Hotel del Capo. The high city will be in the spotlight during next days, even in the sets prepared in the ex San Giuseppe Nursing Home, ini the Porta Sottana Square and in Dritta Street, The shots are foressen also at the harbour and at Montenero. A stop also at Ventimiglia, one day, on Marina di S. Giuseppe's beach. (foto © lastampa.it)
