“Be Brave” directed by Francesco Carrozzini at the 2026 Venice Film Festival
BE BRAVE, directed by Francesco Carrozzini, will have its world premiere in the Official Selection – Open, Out of Competition, at the 83rd Venice International Film Festival.
The film is produced by OUR FILMS, a Mediawan company, and OUR AI.
Produced by Lorenzo Mieli, Mario Gianani and Gabriele Immirzi.
Written by Lara Prando and Michele Abatantuono, with Roberto Beragnoli serving as Creative AI Director and Marco Pianigiani as Senior Creative Producer.
Music by Ralf Hildenbeutel, cinematography by Matteo Vielle, and editing by Rocco Bernini and Nicole Pagin.
Francesco Carrozzini tells the story of international fashion icon Renzo Rosso — the bold and visionary founder of Diesel who turned nonconformity into a trademark — creating an original and uncompromising portrait.
He does so by embracing and exploring the most debated and controversial medium of our time: artificial intelligence. Yet he never relinquishes complete creative control over any element of the film, approaching each one with the same provocative spirit as its protagonist.
The message that emerges—and that Rosso sends to future generations? Simple: Break every rule. Don’t be afraid.
