Italian horror icon Dario Argento (SUSPIRIA, DEEP RED, INFERNO) returns to the big screen with DARK GLASSES, his first directorial effort in over a decade.

Rome. A serial killer has killed three prostitutes, strangling them with cello ropes. The last rope of the "Cellist" is destined for Diana, a luxury escort who frequents the hotels of Via Veneto. One night, the maniac chases her driving a van, an drams her sending her crashing into another car. Diana awakens in a hospital, shrouded in darkness. The diagnosis is final: she lost her sight in the crash. Rita, a young woman from the Blinds' Society, helps Diana with her first steps in the darkness and in her new life; in the meantime, the police investigates, although unsuccessfully. With Ilenia Pastorelli, Asia Argento, Andrea Gherpelli.

But it won't stop there. The Cellist must finish his work. Diana, helped by Chin, an orphaned Chinese boy, can only try to escape. The cat and mouse game has just begun...

"Only those immune to the puerile charm of attack dogs, eclipses and water snakes will fail to enjoy “Dark Glasses” even a little." (Variety)

"Rather than copy the style of the giallo films from the 1970s and 1980s that made him famous, his "Dark Glasses" finds ingenious ways to retain the core of the giallo while adapting to our current times." (The Playlist)
