A beautifully crafted journey
A timely story about perseverance
An intimate look into the life of a woman who most consider the picture of strength and stoicism, told through several years of cinéma vérité, mixed media coverage; Stronger for Life offers a side of Ilaria Montagnani never seen before.

Riveting!

Will Ilaria's philosophy confront and conquer this life challenge.
