Nicole Kidman, Monica Bellucci and Viggo Mortensen are among the stars headlining the first edition of the Rome Film Festival.
The festival, which will run Oct. 13-21, opens with the world premiere of "Fur: An Imaginary Portrait of Diana Arbus," starring Kidman. The movie is being shown out of competition.
"This film is a paradigm. It has everything you can think of for an opening film," Piera Detassis, a member of the festival's board of directors, said Tuesday.
