OUR 2021 OPENING MOVIE

The ICFF, presented by Lavazza, is thrilled to announce that the 10th edition of the Festival will open with Disney & Pixar’s upcoming original feature film Luca, directed by Academy Award nominee Enrico Casarosa. The screening will feature an exquisite Luca— themed dinner prepared by Eataly, and will include a special greeting from Enrico Casarosa and from Character Art Director Deanna Marsiglese, an Italian-Canadian and proud Torontonian. The Special Opening Screening of Luca was a gift from Disney & Pixar to the Italian-Canadian community, honouring this celebration and providing audiences with an opportunity to reconnect after a long period of isolation.

FILM PLOT

Disney & Pixar’s original feature film Luca is a coming-of-age story about a young boy experiencing an unforgettable summer filled with gelato, pasta and endless scooter rides. Luca shares these adventures with his newfound best friend, but all the fun is threatened by a deeply-held secret: they are sea monsters from another world just below the water’s surface. The voice cast features Jacob Tremblay as Luca Paguro, Jack Dylan Grazer as Alberto Scorfano, Emma Berman as Giulia Marcovaldo, Saverio Raimondo as town bully Ercole Visconti, Maya Rudolph as Luca’s mom, Daniela, Marco Barricelli as Giulia’s dad, Massimo, Jim Gaffigan as Luca’s dad, Lorenzo, Sandy Martin as Luca’s grandma, and Giacomo Gianniotti as a local fisherman. Pixar Animation Studios’ 24th feature film is directed by Academy Award nominee Enrico Casarosa (La Luna) and produced by Andrea Warren (Lava, Cars 3). Award-winning composer Dan Romer (Beasts of the Southern Wild, Maniac) created the score.
