Vivaldi, the Red Priest

2009 film by Liana Marabini

Vivaldi, the Red Priest (Italian: Vivaldi, il prete rosso[1]) is an Italian television film, created and directed by Liana Marabini in 2009, about the life of composer Antonio Vivaldi, who was also a Catholic priest. It shows his relationship with the world, the Church, his spiritual battles and his love for a woman. This co-production between the UK and Italy has two episodes of 90 minutes,[2] and intends to show the spiritual dimension of Vivaldi which is, according to the director, often ignored.[3]
