The Neapolitan director Paolo Sorrentino will shoot his next film in Naples, it will be called It was the hand of God and perhaps it will be dedicated to Maradona!

The great director Paolo Sorrentino after more than twenty years he will return to shoot in the streets and neighborhoods of Naples on the occasion of his new film project entitled It was the hand of God, in whose production Netflix will also be involved.

It was the hand of God

It seems that the new film is dedicated to the man who was the idol of all Neapolitan football fans, i.e. Diego Armando Maradona, to whom the director feels particularly close, so much so that he even mentions him on stage during the thanks, after winning The Oscar Prize in 2014 with the movie The great beauty. 

However it is one news still uncertain, in fact the title of the film could also allude to one autobiographical story, which tells the life of the same Paolo Sorrentino in the streets of his hometown, a big fan of Napoli and Maradona.

In fact, it seems that the former Argentine player, as reported by his lawyer through a post published on twitter, did not authorize the use of one's image for this film.
