Yara

This film has no fiction, but a lot about the reality of gender violence. A teenager disappeared in Bergamo, a city in northern Italy, capital of the homonymous province and part of the Lombardy region. In fact, she was kidnapped by the end of 2010, weeks later she was found dead in an open field on the outskirts of Bergamo. That shook Italy, so the police took the task of investigating the incident with very little chance of discovering the culprit, unless the necessary resources were put in place for this purpose and develop a thorough investigation. This was what the prosecutor Letizia Ruggeri set out to investigate for years and with traditional methods. Fortunately, we live in a world where there is scientific development in the field of molecular biology; it is known what a gene is, a short segment of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), and an important part of the chromosomes. They tell us as a whole the hereditary material of the human body and the way it works. Therefore, there was no need for the services of Sherlock Holmes or detective Philip Marlowe. The film clearly shows the political baseness and the entanglements of an opposition to harm those responsible for the investigation, and as usual, without proposing any other alternative to get the truth of the case.

Ok its not a masterpiece,but its very engrossing..Keeps you hooked and the best part is that its a true story..A must watch for all crime thriller watchers.

I approached this movie without knowing what to expect.

It is sad to review a film that is based on real events, in this case the murder of a poor girl. The story is well told.

The actors are credible and for the whole film there is a certain restlessness and anxiety.

In its genuineness, the film is perfect. Maybe a part of the action is totally missing but if it didn't happen I don't see why it needs to be told.

Sometimes I had the impression that the film was running too much towards an epilogue maybe a little hasty.

Surely saddened to know that the girl's parents could watch the movie and relive the moments that anguished them so much.

Isabella Ragonese shines in this investigation based on a real-live event: no cliché , no filler ,no hint at her private life, no unnecessary scene (the brief moment when she thinks she's lost her own daughter could not have been more human).

A determined woman , but not the usual smug cocky hero/heroine one meets in so many thrillers ,a human being with her doubts and her moments of discouragement ; putting her career on stake, even when everybody is against her .The parents,too,give a restrained performance,full of dignity , always trusting her and never overplaying,no facile tear-jerking scene. But the mother's look,at the end of the trial ,is revealing.

In spite of a horrible tragedy (the viewer knows from the start the fatal issue and the martyr the victim endured) , this is a gripping ,absorbing investigation ,involving the simplest methods (the diary of the teenager) and the more complex ones (DNA ); another strong point is that even in real life ,there are red herrings: a mistranslation can ruin an innocent's life.

"Yara" is a Drama - Thriller movie in which we follow the true story of a mysterious missing 13-year-old. This case was investigated by a prosecutor who did not lose her faith and tried very hard to solve the mystery behind it.

I liked this movie very much because it was based on a real case, it had an interesting plot that contained plenty of suspense and mystery, something that made it even more interesting. The direction which was made by Marco Tullio Giordana was very good and he did an excellent job on the way he presented the plot behind the missing person along with the key characters of the movie. The interpretations of Isabella Ragonese who played as Letizia Ruggeri, Thomas Trabacchi who played as Maresciallo Garro and Miro Landoni who played as Cancelliere Edoardo Carlini were very good. In conclusion, I have to say that "Yara" is an interesting thriller movie and I recommend you to watch it because I am sure that will leave you speechless.
