"Race for Glory: Audi vs Lancia", Stefano Mordini's new film, plunges viewers into the intense, competitive world of rally car racing in the 1980s. Scheduled for theatrical release on February 7, 2024, this dramatic biopic, co-written by Filippo Bologna and Stefano Mordini, promises to be a must-see for fans of the genre.
The film sheds light on the legendary rivalry between two world-renowned teams: the Italian Lancia team, headed by the charismatic Cesare Fiorio, and the German Audi team, led by the formidable Roland Gumpert. This historic confrontation is brought to the screen by outstanding performances from Riccardo Scamarcio and Daniel Brühl, who play Cesare Fiorio and Roland Gumpert respectively, while Volker Bruch plays a key role.
The heart of the film is set in 1983, when the rivalry reaches its climax. The iconic cars, the Lancia Rally 037 and theAudi Quattro, are driven by rally legends Walter Röhrl and Hannu Mikkola. Their epic duels in the World Rally Championship are at the heart of the story, offering a spectacular immersion in the world of motorsport at the time.
Riccardo Scamarcio, known for his roles in films such as"Romanzo Criminale" and"Le Premier qui l'a dit", brings a dramatic intensity to his character. Daniel Brühl, whose acclaimed performance in"Rush", returns to the world of racing with an equally captivating role. Volker Bruch, famous for his role in the series"Babylon Berlin", and French actress Esther Garrel, who plays Audi driver Michèle Mouton, round off this high-caliber cast.
"Race for Glory: Audi vs Lancia" is not just a film about motor racing, but also a testament to the passion, innovation and rivalry that shaped an important era in motorsport. This film promises to captivate not only racing fans, but also those who appreciate historical narratives and high-caliber acting performances.
