Zucchero: Sugar Fornaciari

In the organizer's words:

An intimate and exciting portrait, released the day after the star/singer's birthday, told in Zucchero's words and those of colleagues and friends such as U2 lead singer Bono, Sting, Brian May, Paul Young, Luciano Pavarotti, Andrea Bocelli, Salmo, Roberto Baggio, Jack Savoretti, Don Was, Randy Jackson and many more. In summer 2024, Zucchero will be touring the world again, including Germany. The life of ZUCCHERO Sugar Fornaciari is an explosion of contradictions: he fills huge stadiums, performs together with the top stars of the music world, but also experiences the hardship and hardship of Emilian country life in the 1950s and 1960s in Italy. But it is precisely from such contradictions that the most beautiful stories emerge. Stories like his. The film is a musical journey into the soul of the Italian master of blues, soul and rock'n'roll, filled with many private details: ZUCCHERO. A portrait of an exceptional artist that goes far beyond a biopic of a successful musician thanks to the images from Zucchero's private archive and from the "World Wild Tour", his last triumphant world tour. The film also explores the doubts and fragilities of Zucchero the man. A man who doesn't always feel able to fight the devil within him and has decided to have fun with him instead.
