Trailer For Netflix's Italian Limited Series THE LYING LIFE OF ADULTS

Netflix has released a trailer for the Italian limited drama series, The Lying Life of Adults, based on the best-selling novel of the same name by Elena Ferrante. The six-episode Italian series directed by Edoardo De Angelis stars Giordana Marengo as Giovanna, whose turbulent transition from child to adolescence against the backdrop of 1990s Naples is the center of this story.

The series also stars Valeria Golino as Aunt Vittoria, with Alessandro Preziosi, Pina Turco, Azzurra Mennella, and Rossella Gamba.

Here’s the full synopsis:

The search for a new face, after the happy one of childhood, oscillates between two consanguineous Naples which, however, fear and hate each other: the Naples above, which has given itself a fine mask, and the one below, which pretends to be excessive, trivial. Giovanna oscillates between high & low, now tumbling, now climbing, bewildered by the fact that, up or down, the city seems without answer and without escape.

This looks like an interesting story of a family’s drama against a beautiful Italian backdrop. Check out the trailer below, and watch The Lying Life of Adults on Netflix on January 3rd.
