Writer/director Steve Balderson describes his latest film ‘Love, Venezia as “a sexy love story” adding ’it is a deeply personal exploration of love and human connection set against the timeless backdrop of Venice.” Judging from the NSFW teaser/trailer its that and so much more.
From this filmmaker who gave us Firecracker, Pep Squad, and Sex, Lies, and Sugar (AKA The Casserole Club), comes the story of two strangers whose paths unexpectedly cross in the romantic Italian city. It stars Broadway performer Daniel Bateman and Italian-British actor Alexander Ananasso, plus there is an appearance by the legendary Mink Stole.
The film explores themes of “self-discovery and acceptance and is both extremely heartbreaking and stunningly beautiful, and is heading for its World Premiere at the Palm Springs LGBTQ Film Festival at Cinema Diverse next month . In the words of the filmmaker “It’s a story that resonates with the heart and soul of every viewer, celebrating the enduring power of love amidst life’s challenges”
The movie is then due for a theatrical release in 2025
