The filmmaking duo of Hélène Cattet and Bruno Forzani have previously paid homage to the Italian genres of giallo (Amer, The Strange Colour of Your Body's Tears) and spaghetti western (Let the Corpses Tan). Now with Reflection in a Dead Diamond they deliver their take on the Italian Euro-spy thrillers of the 1960s.
The film stars Italian screen legend Fabio Testi as an elderly former spy who is forced to confront his past when his neighbour mysteriously disappears.
Yannick Renier, Koen De Bouw, Maria de Medeiros, Thi Mai Nguyen and Céline Camara also star.
Reflection in a Dead Diamond is in US cinemas from November 21st and on Shudder from December 5th.
Check out the new trailer and poster below.
The official synopsis reads:
When the mysterious woman in the room next door disappears, a debonair 70-year-old ex-spy living in a luxury hotel on the Côte d’Azur is confronted by the demons and darlings of a lurid past in which moviemaking, memories and madness collide.
