Italian screenwriters Ilaria Bernardini and Ludovica Rampoldi have completed the screenplay for The Echo Chamber, the unfinished project by Bernardo Bertolucci he worked on before his death.

Italian producer Indigo Films acquired the dramatic feature in 2018 and now has the project in active development and being shopped for co-production partners at the Toronto Film Festival. Bernardini penned the Italian series Corpo Libero and Rampoldi was a writer on Max’s Gomorrah gangster drama.

Bernardini and Rampoldi wrote the first draft of the screenplay for The Echo Chamber with Bertolucci, and have finished the screenplay. Carolina Iorio is producing the $6 million English language feature that centers on a love story in a single house. Leo, a successful music producer struggling with addiction, starts a relationship with Layla, a passionate, yet enigmatic physiotherapist.

There’s no word on casting for The Echo Chamber, as talks on an Italian director for the project continue.
