The film career of the successful Italian model Monica Bellucci began in 1990 with a role in the drama “Adult Love” (“Life with Children”). Pretty soon she was recognized not only as one of the most beautiful, but also the most talented actresses in world cinema. 
And in 2017, Monica was awarded the award for outstanding personal achievement, traditionally awarded by the San Sebastian International Film Festival.
