The Kidnapping of Arabella
Synopsis
When little Arabella is forced to attend a glitzy gala in celebration of her novelist father, she has an epic meltdown – the enfant terrible wanted Taco King! She gets her way when her preoccupied parent, played by the unexpectedly Italian-fluent Chris Pine, sends her off to the taqueria with his driver. Unsupervised in the carpark, Arabella locks eyes with lost soul Holly who, in a fugue state, hallucinates that Arabella is her younger self. Seizing the moment, the fleeing fledgling makes a break for it with her confused kidnapper. Awarded the Best Actress prize at Venice, Italian It girl Benedetta Porcaroli stars as Arabella’s accidental smuggler in this runaway romp by sophomore Carolina Cavalli (Amanda).
