“DICIANNOVE is unflinchingly honest about what it’s like to be 19.”
—The Hollywood Reporter

Dubbed “a freewheeling Gen Z bildungsroman” (SIFF), Giovanni Tortorici’s audacious debut follows Leonardo, a teen entering the world of higher learning, as he spars with academia — and even himself. Produced by Luca Guadagnino, it’s restless, raw, and undeniably now.
