The protagonist of the film is an adorable ShihTzu, named Alex. The puppy dog arrives on the eve of the Christmas festivities in a wealthy family as a gift from the father to his wife and their three children. But the surprise is not appreciated by the spouse, which hates dogs. Thus a difficult cohabitation begins between the lady and Alex, until one day … Last Spring, the production’site received the visit of the Italian Ambassador of Monaco, H.E. Mr. Cristiano Gallo, who wanted to personally congratulate Mr. Pinocci for his intense cinematographic activity in the two Rivieras.The official release of the film, which will be distributed in 40 countries, took place at the Cannes Film Festival in May 2018, while the international première will take place at the American Film Market in November 2018.
The next movies, currently in pre-production, are the comedy family romance “Daddy do not Marry Again”, with Dean Cain (Lois & Clark –Superman last Adventures, Out of time, God’s dead) and the family musical “Teen Star Academy 2”. As the first movie, the sequel will be filmed between the French Riviera and Italy. The comedy romance “Jonny Zumba” and “The White Stallion” will be filmed in Los Angeles, but “2 Hearts and 3 Puppies at Christmas” will once again be set in Cote d’Azur. Thanks to the link with the United States that boasts a vast film market, Movie On Pictures Ltd is able to support a wide range of customers in the world. “After studying the international market for years, I mainly focused my activity on the production of family films. – comments Mr. Pinocci -“Receiving such an important recognition in London made me very happy. I am looking forward to developing the objectives that I have set, the realization of 6 films a year, starting from 2019”. It seems that the young cinema star Letizia has taken the same determination from her father’s DNA and that she is truly worthy of acting in the films produced by her father.
