Paola Randi's coming-of-age drama "The Story of Frank and Nina," which has its world premiere in the Venice Film Festival's Horizons Extra program, has debuted a first-run clip (below). International distribution is handled by Fandango Sales.

The synopsis reads: "It's up to Gollum to tell us 'La storia del Frank e della Nina' — only he doesn't speak, and he has to write it on the wall. He is the keeper of those words, the words that can't come out of his mouth, the words he writes on buildings as if the city were some great amplifier.
