Sting to Narrate Nino Rota Doc for Venice Premiere

Sting is set to narrate a new documentary on Nino Rota, Walter Fasano’s film on the composer behind The Godfather and Fellini’s great run. The special screening at Venice points to a portrait built less as biography than as a room for music to keep sounding.
