GIFF and the Directors’ Fortnight have joined forces this year to offer festivalgoers the opportunity to discover in full the new series, which should have been screened at Cannes, by Luca Guadagnino (Call Me By Your Name). A major event!

Academy Award-nominated director Luca Guadagnino brings his unique cinematic style to television for the first time in We Are Who We Are. The Series tells the story of two American kids who live on a U.S. military base in Italy. We Are Who We Are explores friendship, first-love, identity, and immerses the audience in all the messy exhilaration and anguish of being a teenager – a story which could happen anywhere in the world, but in this case, happens in this little slice of America in Italy.
