Like a champion racehorse that won’t stop running, Transference has surpassed another incredible milestone! It has been viewed over 26 million times on YouTube (it was featured by the Times for having ‘gone viral‘ after chalking up half this amount.) Even though the film is free on YouTube, we can’t wait to see it on the big screen again in a celebration screening at Sanctum Soho and to see where our follow up film To Love A Narcissist takes us in 2025! Happy NY!

Contro Vento in Sanctum
Post-production of To Love A Narcissist is complete. Our latest trailer is out. Private screenings are happening. Most Americans love a narcissist.
Contro Vento hosted two private screenings of To Love A Narcissist in one day at the Sanctum, Soho, London, 9 Dec! We feel incredibly lucky to have had an opportunity to screen our film at such an iconic venue! Unfortunately, we won’t be doing any public screenings while we await to learn our fate from festivals. Hopefully we’ll have some good news to share soon!

To Love A Narcissist in Variety
Thanks to Variety for this nice piece about Sadie Frost joining our Contro Vento family as an executive producer on To Love A Narcissist, the history of Contro Vento since founder/director Raffaello Degruttola was BIFA-nominated for Flim, and where we boldly go next! I am proud to be producing this film with Raff and Bill Bossert. Thanks to reporter Naman Ramachandran for the much appreciated publicity and for explaining what Contro Vento means in Italian (we are full of wind).
Contro Vento launches Sustainable Movie Merch!
The last few months at Contro Vento Films have been a whirl! We wrapped shooting our latest feature film To Love A Narcissist in Lake Garda, Italy, produced a trailer and a first cut, and just launched our first Official Hoodies in collaboration with Tee Mill! Thanks to my gorgeous niece Mia for modelling one of our two hoodie designs!
Our certified organic cotton pullover hoodies are 100% sustainable, GM free, not tested on animals and do not contain any animal-derived products. We have two unique designs available in black – and hoodies are just the start! We’ve added TLAN tees, totes and baseball caps to our growing collection of movie merch!

To Love A Narcissist Trailer Drops!
The latest trailer for the film I am producing with Raffaello Degruttola and Sadie Frost just dropped! Trust is weaponised in To Love A Narcissist, our first dramatic feature film since Transference went viral (24M+ views on YouTube). Filming wrapped in Lake Garda, Italy, last month and post-production is in full swing! (We just completed our first cut!) Stellar performances across the board by Lyndsey Marshal, Stephen Campbell Moore, Sule Rimi and Andrea Lowe.
I am also thrilled to have joined the Contro Vento team alongside Raff and Bill Bossert!

To Love A Narcissist
What better day to let slip I am producing a film called To Love A Narcissist than Valentine’s! To Love A Narcissist is another obsessive love story by Raffaello Degruttola where trust is weaponised. Our last film collaboration Transference went viral on YouTube and has now been viewed over 23M times. This one stars the magnetic Lyndsey Marshal alongside Raff and a stellar supporting cast that includes Sule Rimi, Stephen Campbell-Moore and Andrea Lowe. You can follow the film @Contro Vento Films and toloveanarcissist.com.
Transference tops 20M Views on YouTube!
There’s either something wrong with my eyes or Transference has topped 20M views on YouTube! I swear I was only responsible for one of these views! It’s mind-blowing a micro-budget film about a niche mental health topic like bipolar disorder can create a stir. Co-producing this indie film with one of my besties (director/actor Raffaello Degruttola) and his phenomenal cast & crew was honestly the best distraction I could ever have hoped for from the apocalypse of 2020-2022. Be bold and keep talking about mental health! Off to get my eyes tested – just in case. I may have to delete this post later.
