“Together, Favino and Reilly are the quintessential film couple, transporting our story into a timeless dimension", enthuses the director, who has lived in Los Angeles for some time now. “I grew up watching films from all corners of the globe. I favour talent above all else. I wanted this film to express an emotion which affects us all and for this choice to be reflected in the cast”. Speaking of the movie, she adds: “I spent three years writing the book and it took another five to turn it into a screenplay, probably because it’s not at all easy summing-up a lifetime. Promises reveals one man’s entire life, the essence of time passing by, and what it is that really matters, when all is said and done: the pain experienced in childhood which shapes you, the nights where you danced like there was no tomorrow, true friendships which act as links, either bringing us closer or suffocating us, depending on what we’re currently going through, your wedding photo which you have to pack away in a moving box as if you were putting a part of yourself to one side, and love, the great love story you could have experienced if only you’d turned left instead of right”.

Besides the afore-mentioned Holy Lands which was also based on one of her novels, Amanda Sthers’ offerings as a director and screenwriter include Madame [+lee también:
