We Are Who We Are
Luca Guadagnino takes us into the lives of the young people who populate the US military base located in Chioggia, in 2016. The director of the Oscar-winning film Call Me With Your Name throws a further eye on adolescent existence through the Sky Original TV series We Are Who We Are, produced for HBO and Sky Atlantic. Aired from 9 October, this is an eight-episode mini-series which, compatibly with the subject matter, includes a cast made up of both Italian and American performers.We Are Who We Are tells of young people who gravitate around the US military base Caserma Pialati, near Chioggia: the children of the soldiers who are there, but also those who live in the small Venetian town. Set in a period before Donal Trump's elections in America, Guadagnino's mini-series closely follows Fraser, son of the new commander, Sarah, who moved to the base with him and his partner; and Caitlin, who has been living there for some years with her family since her father is stationed there.
A deep bond develops between the two teenagers. An encounter that overwhelms them and upsets their worlds: that of Fraser, a restless young man who is catapulted into a completely new place and environment, and that of Caitlin, perfectly integrated into the community that surrounds her. We Are Who We Are is an all-round exploration of the world of youth through the lens of the bond between the two protagonists of the mini-series, created with a unique and careful cut that goes beyond the usual "teen drama" and bears the unmistakable signature of Guadagnino.

Romulus
A TV series created by Matteo Rovere, consisting of ten episodes, set in the 8th century BC. Its peculiarity? It was shot entirely in protolatin and it is possible to watch it (with subtitles in Italian) listening to the ancient language. The director of Il Primo Re, the 2019 film that earned the David di Donatello through his reinterpretation of the myth of Romulus and Remus, once again brings to the screen the origins of the foundation of Rome with his Romulus.The Sky Original TV series has aired since November 6 and was produced by Sky, Cattleya and Groenlandia. It follows the stories of three young people: Yemos, an heir to the throne (played by Andrea Arcangeli), the priestess Ilia (Marianna Fontana) and Wiros, a slave who has to face trials among the dangers of the woods (Francesco di Napoli). The three protagonists of Romulus, in their passage from adolescence to adulthood, will discover that they have the power to change not only their own destiny, but also that of an entire world that will thus reap the fruits of their actions.
Romulus is the story, therefore, of a historical moment which, between reality and myth, marks the beginning of a profound change for the Western world. A journey of discovery to the roots of civilization, created by Matteo Rovere who also directed the first episodes. Furthermore, two novels have been taken from Romulus, the first of what is destined to be a trilogy aimed at expanding the aspects that have passed into the background in the TV series: Romulus: The Blood of the Wolf and Romulus: The Queen of Battles , written by Luca Azzolini.
