Rome’s Il Cinema in Piazza summer screenings series has recruited Léa Seydoux, who will present Arthur Harari’s body-swap psychodrama “The Unknown” as part of a three-picture Carte Blanche program featuring “three titles that have shaped her imagination and artistic journey,” organizers have announced.

The unique program — featuring 95 free screenings in three outdoor venues, plus the indoor Cinema Troisi arthouse venue — will screen the Italian premiere of “The Unknown” on June 27 at the Sala Troisi, introduced by Seydoux. The French star recently told Variety in a digital cover that her role in the film is “the best part I’ve ever played.”
