Delve more into the life and times of Lidia Poët in a new contemporary Netflix drama. Now streaming on Netflix is a new dramatic series entitled “The Law According to Lidia Poët,” starring Matilda de Angelis in the title role of Lidia. The show is loosely based on the early career of the Italian lawyer and the difficulties she faced. It also focuses on complicated legal cases in which innocent people are defamed and convicted before reaching a courtroom. The antics and detective work Lidia indulges in to save her clients are primarily romanticized for TV drama. According to Marilena Jahier Togliatti, the only living relative — a distant grand-niece of the lawyer, the Netflix show is “too fictionalized” for her liking. She thinks, “What was the need to twist history? She [Lidia] was already adventurous enough to stay true to reality.” I’ve watched all six episodes of the first season and found it entertaining and well done. It may be a sensationalized drama piece, but one of the things it does exceptionally well is shine light on Lidia Poët’s name, making it and her actual accomplishments known to a new generation. The Netflix production is filmed in Turin, and the sets and scenes are lovely, but the scene stealers are the actors' costumes! Costumer Stefano Ciammitti, a pupil of legendary Italian costumer Piero Tosi, has created sumptuous velvet and silk embroidered concoctions for his female and male leads. Bold crimson and teal colors, tailored suits paired with smart hats, ivory buttons, belts, delightful gold insect broaches, and earrings make for delicious visuals. I give the show two thumbs up and hope there will be a second season. Waiting for confirmation from Netflix with bated breath. #LidiaPoët #ItalyFirstFemaleLawyer #WomenInLawItaly #NetflixItalianDrama #NetflixOriginalItalySeries #BreakingBarriersWithLaw #PioneeringWomenInLaw #MatildadeAngelis #italiantvdrama https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpg7C0EswL4/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
