Martin Eden
Directed by Pietro Marcello
Produced by Avventurosa, IBC MOvie
A melancholic, intellectually engaged portrait of an ambitious working-class man caught between romantic love and ideological loyalty in early 20th-century Italy.
The tale of an individualist proletarian in a time marked by the rise of mass political movements. In early 20th-century Italy, illiterate sailor Martin Eden seeks fame as a writer while torn between the love of a bourgeois girl and allegiance to his social class.
