Identification of a Woman is a 1982 Italian drama film written, directed, and edited by Michelangelo Antonioni and starring Tomas Milian, Daniela Silverio, and Christine Boisson. The film is about an Italian filmmaker searching for a woman to play the leading role in his next film, and also in his life. Filmed on location in Rome and Venice, Identification of a Woman was awarded the 35th Anniversary Prize at the 1982 Cannes Film Festival. Niccolò is a successful Italian filmmaker searching for a woman to inspire his next film and perhaps fill the romantic void left by his recent... divorce. At his sister's gynecology office, he answers the phone and speaks briefly with a young woman named Mavi Luppis who is looking to make an appointment. She recognized his name and something sparks his imagination. He notes her name and address, and a few days later invites her to his Rome apartment where they make love. Sometime later, Niccolò receives a mysterious phone call from a man wanting to meet about a "delicate matter" at Fassi's ice cream parlor.
