Interview with actor Samuele Segreto of Fireworks

The troubled relationship between Gianni and Nino, set in the narrow-minded and prejudencial Sicily of 1982. Cinephobia Releasing is proud to announce the North American release of the Italian LGBTQ festival darling FIREWORKS from writer-director Giuseppe Fiorello. Based on a real-life incident that jump-started the Italian Gay Rights movement in 1981, the emotional and beautifully realized FIREWORKS will arrived on January 18, 2024 on DVD and VOD, digital platforms, including AppleTV, Amazon Prime, Google Play, VUDU, and more. A sunbaked Sicilian town in the summer of 1982 provides the vivid backdrop to this tender romantic drama about two teenagers who fall in love, but much to the disapproval of those around them. The film stars Gabriele Pizzurro, Samuele Segreto, Fabrizia Sacchi, Simona Malato, Antonio De Matteo, and Enrico Roccaforte. It is produced by Riccardo Di Pasquale, Gabriele Oricchio, and Eleonora Pratelli.
