A documentary-true story-travel diary made by Delia Antal, an actress who overcame all possible obstacles to see her dream come true of her first feature film as director, screenwriter, co-producer and lead actress, "D'ora". The film is extremely interesting, both for those who know absolutely nothing about the backstage of the Cannes festival, and for those who do. The highly professional images shot by Andrea David Farnocchia, Massimiliano Guelfi and Christopher Jenner Cole are accompanied by the voice of Delia Antal, who ensures a very to-the-point, effective commentary, choosing her words with great charm and artistic inspiration. There are also two sad and emotional moments, first when Delia announces the death of her friend Rick Rosen, who was supposed to help her with the distribution of the film "D'ora". The second dramatic moment is the sight of a burning car on the highway, which reminded me of the tragic end of a great French actress, Françoise Dorléac, who died in a car accident while driving alone in 1967, to catch a plane from Nice, to be present in London at the premiere of her latest film, "The Young Girls of Rochefort" (Original title: Les demoiselles de Rochefort). In just one hour and 13 minutes you will see the splendor of the city of Cannes and you will meet or re-meet, even for a few seconds and even if some do not appear on the credits of the film, with many celebrities such as, in alphabetical order: Armand Assante, Marion Cotillard, Nicole Kidman, Andie MacDowell, Marilyn Monroe (only on the huge posters and archive images), Robert Redford, Audrey Tautou. In the film, in an interview with Delia, Maia Morgenstern also appears, with whom I worked together in an office of the academy of agricultural sciences, coloring maps, around 1975, when Maia was only 13 years old and already knew, just like Delia Antal, that she will become an actress someday.
