The story

What Is The Lovers of Verona About?

The premise of The Lovers of Verona without spoilers.

Angelo, a Murano glass‑blower, and Georgia Maglia, the attractive daughter of a disgraced fascist magistrate, are hired as stand‑ins for the leads of a “Romeo and Juliet” film shooting in Venice and Verona. They quickly fall for each other, echoing Shakespeare’s lovers, but their relationship is jeopardized by the scheming of Raffaele, dubious tout.
