A young man falls in love with a married woman in the new romance film Alone in Venice, which has an exclusive trailer. This follows Freestyle Digital Media’s successful acquisition of the film’s VOD rights.

“The film follows a young actor waiting for his married director while questioning what love is. It tells the story about a young and beautiful American aspiring actor, Saul Larson, waiting for his married Chinese female director in Venice, Italy,” reads the film’s synopsis. “The actor was fervently in love with the director, while she was giving him excuses after excuses, having him wait alone in Venice. Finally, when the flood season comes, Saul receives a text message from the director. Will they finally meet in Venice? And what will come out of their meeting?”

When is the Alone in Venice Release Date?

Beginning January 7, 2025, Alone in Venice will be available for purchase or rental on all North American digital HD internet, cable, and satellite platforms, as well as on DVD. The film, which is written and directed by Jules East and also serves as a producer, is described as a contemporary reversal of Thomas Mann’s Death in Venice novel. Luca Rosini plays Tommaso Greco, Lisa Jacqueline Starrett plays Mia Jones, and Apollo Luce plays Saul Larson.

“Alone in Venice was created during a summer vacation with my friends and I spent in Venice,” East said in a statement. “As a Chinese filmmaker, I was mesmerized by the beauty of Venice and surprised to discover that among wealthy Chinese married women, it has become a trend to keep their Italian or other Caucasian lovers in this enchanting city above the sea. Inspired by Death in Venice, one of the most iconic films ever made in this city, I felt compelled to create a film about love–especially forbidden love.”
