Lamborghini – The Man Behind the Legend had its global premiere at the Rome Film Festival. Set in 1950s Italy, the film, penned and directed by Bobby Moresco, Oscar winner for Crash, was released in Italy in January, just days before the thirtieth anniversary of the passing of Ferruccio Lamborghini, the founder of one of the world’s most celebrated automobile brands.

Playing the role of the visionary entrepreneur is actor Frank Grillo. In his early thirties, Ferruccio ventured into manufacturing agricultural equipment, launching Lamborghini Trattori. Yet, his passion for sports cars ultimately led him to establish Lamborghini Automobili, a journey that placed him in direct rivalry with Enzo Ferrari.
