While actors and directors of Hollywood are on strike and choose not to parade on the red carpet of the Lido, and many spectators ask themselves about the growing presence of influencers in the world of cinema, there is a family that has attracted everyone's attention: i Castellitto.

The complete castles

Called by some a "clan" and others a "tribe", the castles prefer to simply define themselves as a united family. This is the history of the complete Castellitto family, a love story for cinema and for the art that brought them to Venice in the spotlight.

The show is the family

The presence of the complete castles on the red carpet of the Venice Film Festival was an extraordinary event. This is not the first time that Sergio Castellitto and Margaret Mazzantini participate in film festivals, but this was the first time they did it with all four of their children. This created an atmosphere of authentic family celebration that hit the public and the media. At a time when the big names of Hollywood seem to be scarce, the castles have become the real dives of the exhibition, showing that the real force lies in the solidity of family ties.

The secret of the "clan"

Sergio Castellitto, with his usual eloquence, shares the secrets of their family bond: "Margaret often said to me:" After all, ours was not a love, it was a fate ". With Margaret we did many things together, but above all we built a family. Our children witnessed everything: harmony and quarrels. We are a sort of microsocity, six individuals who know how to share, love and support each other ".

An art family

Margaret Mazzantini, the creative mind behind many of the couple's literary successes, adds: “Our bond was an extraordinary path, and the fact that our children grow up in an environment so full of art and culture is a privilege that made us even more united ".

A promise of Italian cinema

The eldest son, Pietro Castellitto, is building his name in the world of Italian cinema. He is in competition at the Venice Film Festival with his second film, "Enea". His first film, which received wide praise from critics, marked the beginning of a promising career as a director and actor. Also in "Enea", Pietro explores family themes, but this time he focuses on more complex feelings, such as resentments and selfishness, which can arise within a family. However, in the Castellitto house, love and mutual support always prevail.

Minor children

The youngest members of the Castellitto family, Maria, Anna and Cesare, bring freshness and vitality to family dynamics. Maria is following the literary footsteps of her mother Margaret, while Anna is specializing in philosophy. Cesare, the youngest of the family, has already embarked on his career as an actor in Pietro's film and seems to promise a lot for the future. Sergio Castellitto shows himself proud of his younger children, stating: “The most precious advice lately they give them their children because they have a more dynamic look at things. They are a constant source of inspiration for me ”.
