(Time.news) – Venice, Aug. 30 -Rocio Munoz Morales faces one interview after another in the Spazio Campari of the Lido of Venice where her parents, Manuel and Maria Pilar, married for 52 years, follow her with pride and discretion. The answers to the journalists’ curiosities are very wise and thoughtful, the press office “supervises” it, not giving up for a moment. Do we need more women in politics? The elections are approaching and the “godmother” of the 79th edition of the International Film Festival says yes, take it away. «I think that women can do more and more – he explains to Time.news – and that we are on a good path even if there are still many steps to climb. As far as I can, I always try to assert my being a woman not only because I am but also because I have two daughters who will be the future of this country and of the world. I hope for myself, but above all for them, that there is an increasing presence of women not only in politics but in all sectors ». Rocio has a traditionalist approach to marriage: «Raul Bova and I are not married, but I don’t hope for anything. I deposit my confidence in myself and in my things. We love each other madly, we have two wonderful daughters. But I follow tradition: I will certainly not be the one to ask him to marry me. Will he be there tomorrow? I really hope that sooner or later it will arrive ». She models in Madrid, where she studied as an actress, the godmother made her debut in Italian cinema with “Immaturi-Il viaggio” and she never moved. “If I hadn’t been an actress, I would have become a writer, a journalist, a psychologist. I like stories ». After Sanremo, this role in one of the most important film events in the world, always in Italy. “Why are they calling me? I don’t even know – she laughs. I certainly feel Italian. I drive, I do the washing machines, I fight in Italian and now I also do my homework with the girls in Italian. It is the country that I have chosen, my home ». On the opening night of the Festival, it will be up to her to deliver the speech that outlines the horizons of this 90-year-old creature, whose poster, for the first time in history, shows a Lioness and not a Lion: “The speech is ready , it is in the head and especially in the heart. I didn’t want to write a speech as a teacher, as a politician but to express a feeling of mine that I think is common. I want to talk about cinema as a moment of union ». Will there be room for war and pandemic? “We talk about our present, our life and I must necessarily talk about the world that is suffering but I was asked for a positive, smiling speech. A bit like the poster of the Lioness with wings that breaks free. I hope that this edition of the exhibition will serve to remove a bit of ugliness from the world and add a bit of magic and beauty ».
