Prime Video unveiled the official trailer of its upcoming Italian Original Movie Laura Pausini – Pleased to Meet You starring Italian singer-songwriter and music producer Laura Pausini. The project, based on an original idea by Pausini, is written by Ivan Cotroneo (La kryptonite nella borsa, Un bacio), Monica Rametta (Un bacio, Il volto di un’altra) and Laura Pausini, and directed by Ivan Cotroneo. Francesca Picozza serves as creative producer and Gherardo Gossi (Diaz, Le sorelle Macaluso) as the director of photography. Laura Pausini – Pleased to Meet You is produced by Endemol Shine Italy (a Banijay company) for Amazon Studios and will premiere exclusively on Prime Video on April 7 in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide.

The movie is based on a question: what would have happened if Laura had not won the Sanremo Music Festival (Italian Song Contest) that night in 1993? The Queen of Italian Pop is in front of a feature film camera for the first time ever for a project that makes room for her love for cinema, and unveils Pausini’s true soul to the audience through exclusive never-before-seen glimpses of her private and professional life while giving her a great opportunity to discover new unknown aspects of herself and of her world, which will be revealed to the audience for the first time. To tell her story, Laura retraces her steps, from childhood through all the stages in her extraordinary career and everyday life, imagining for the first time what might have happened if she had not had the luck and persistence to live the life of a global star.

With over 70 million albums sold worldwide, Laura Pausini is one of the most highly regarded Italian artists in the world. Her international reach makes her uniquely positioned as an Italian recording artist. Pausini recently collaborated with songwriter Diane Warren on the song Io Sì (Seen) which won Best Original Song in a Motion Picture at the Golden Globes, and was the first woman in the history of Italian music to be nominated at the Academy Awards for Best Original Song, for the same song, which she also performed during the 2021 Academy Awards Ceremony filmed in Los Angeles and broadcast all over the world. With this new project, Laura Pausini, the most beloved and esteemed Italian artist in the world, is making her cinematic debut on a film that revolves around her and her extraordinary story.
