Scarlet Diva is a semi-autobiographical darkly dramatic and surreal descent into the shockingly intimate world of rising actress Anna Battista. Anna's harrowing and graphic journey plunges her into the dark heart of the film industry where she experiences despair, loneliness and degradation while trying to recapture her innocence and purity. Filmed in a bold, experimental style and featuring an acclaimed, avant electro soundtrack by John Hughes III, Scarlet Diva is an intense, sexually charged and unforgettable cinema experience.

Scarlet Diva has received international acclaim at prestigious film festivals around the world and is the winner of numerous awards including a "Best New Director" citation. Asia Argento, daughter of renowned filmmaker Dario Argento and actress/writer Daria Nicolodi, is an award winning actress and has made a profound impression on critics and worldwide audiences in Patrice Chereau's Queen Margot, Dario Argento's Stendhal Syndrome, Abel Ferrara's New Rose Hotel and B. Monkey, among others. Asia made her major Hollywood debut alongside Vin Diesel in the major studio blockbuster, XXX (2002).
