Sky Arte to Premiere Documentary on Italian Rock Band Verdena
Sky Arte will broadcast the documentary 'Verdena – X sempre assenti' on Wednesday, September 10, 2025, in its first television airing. Directed by Francesco Fei, who also directed the band's music video for 'Valvonauta' in 1995, the film explores the private lives of the three band members as they balance family routines with preparations for the tour of their album 'Volevo Magia'. Released in 2022, that album marked Verdena's return after a seven-year hiatus. The documentary offers an intimate and spontaneous portrait of the artists, whose musical passion is intertwined with their lifelong choice to live in the province of Bergamo, specifically Albino, where the band was formed in 1995. The content is curated by Artribune for Sky Arte.
