Ferragamo presents "Un Passo Alla Volta"
Two worlds. Two eras.
One great love. One family.
Cinema.
Un Passo Alla Volta will premiere on September 9, 2026, at Teatro La Fenice in Venice during the 83rd Venice International Film Festival. Directed by Simone Coppo and starring Martina Ferragamo alongside Margherita Buy, Francesco Colella, and Francesco Centorame, the short film explores a universal theme: the search for one's own path between inheritance, expectations, and freedom of choice.
A Story About the Value of Finding Your Own Way
Born from an original idea by Simone Coppo and Martina Ferragamo, Un Passo Alla Volta begins with a simple yet deeply contemporary question: How do we find our own direction when the future seems already written? In a world that often demands immediate results and predetermined paths, the film invites audiences to rediscover the value of time, listening, and the small steps required to build an authentic identity.
Through a narrative that weaves together memory, present, and future, the short film explores the relationship between what we inherit and what we choose to become, offering a reflection that resonates across generations.
Martina Ferragamo at the Center of a Story Between Cinema and Family
At the heart of the film is Martina Ferragamo, portraying an actress cast in a motion picture about her own family. This premise creates a dialogue between personal experience and collective memory, guiding viewers through significant chapters of the Ferragamo story.
The film retraces the bond between Salvatore Ferragamo and Hollywood cinema, a relationship that helped establish the Ferragamo name as an international reference point. It also pays tribute to Wanda Miletti Ferragamo, whose story embodies continuity, entrepreneurial vision, and an enduring ability to look toward the future. Together, these figures represent a legacy that has become part of the history of Italian excellence.
A Reflection on Legacy and the Future
More than a story about one family, Un Passo Alla Volta addresses themes that belong to everyone: our relationship with our roots, the weight of expectations, the value of talent, and the responsibility of transforming what we receive into a personal choice.
Through a timeless lens, the film reflects on what it means to inherit an extraordinary legacy and discover one's own way of carrying it forward into the future. It is an invitation to move forward with awareness, building a personal path one step at a time.
