Carolina Sala Talks Netflix’s “Devotion, A Story Of Love And Desire”
“Devotion, a Story of Love and Desire” is a gripping series adapted from Marco Missiroli’s 2019 best-selling novel Fedeltà. It explores questions like — Should we confess our infidelity or keep it a secret? Or, as the trailer puts it, “To whom do we owe our fidelity? To others or to ourselves?”
Now that the show’s setting is set, let’s jump straight into Carolina. “Sofia” is a talented student who takes Carlo’s class at a local college. Seeing her potential, her teacher encourages her to write more and even agrees to meet with her to help her with a class assignment about writing about a moment that had a big impact on her life.
But their relationship develops into something more after they start seeing each other outside of school. The teacher even breaks one of his rules and lets Sofia read his unfinished manuscript to help her open up about her writing assignment.
And one day, when Sofia felt overwhelmed and walked out during class, Carlo followed her, and to comfort her, things between them became “complicated”.
Introducing her character, Carolina took to her IG on February 15, 2022 to write, “This is Sofia. It’s been out since yesterday @netflixitwith #Fidelity. And to me, it feels like a dream.”
Additionally, Carolina has shared that she was confused by the plot of the novel. Despite having all the necessary conditions to function as a couple, infidelity still creeps into the relationship. This is not something Carolina can fathom.
Fun Fact: Carolina feels “horrified” every time she sees herself on screen.

So when did Carolina make the jump to the big screen? It was after a talent agent spotted her in Romeo and Juliet, and decided to cast her. She was still in her final year of high school. “I was traveling from Conegliano Veneto to Rome, skipping school all day to go to auditions,” the star recalls.
In addition, Carolina also shared that she even worked as a waitress to earn money for travel.

Additionally, Carolina mentioned that she had just started dating Rodolfo when she got the role in the Netflix series. So since the series revolves around infidelity and she herself is in a long-distance relationship, that aspect of the story felt like a “slap” to her.

Yes, even when it came to heartbreak, Carolina never believed in the concept of everlasting love. She said, “I don’t even know if there is a soul mate, one and only one person in this world who is perfect for us.

Speaking of his boyfriend, Rodolfo Salustri is also a theater artist from his native Loreto, Italy. He studied at Liceo Classico Giacomo Leopardi and then graduated with a Filosofia degree from the Università degli Studi di Macerata.
