Asia Argento stepped out at the Cannes Film Festival the same day that a new in-depth documentary about her late boyfriend Anthony Bourdain's life and tragic suicide was released.
The documentary - Roadrunner: A Film About Anthony Bourdain - describes Argento as a presence that 'upended' the final season of Bourdain's Parts Unknown after the chef became 'addicted' to her.
It was released on Friday - the same day that Argento was photographed on the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival in an elegant, all-black Givenchy gown. She was there to support her 80-year-old father Dario Argento who stars in Gaspar Noe's new film, Vortex.
The Italian actress has yet to comment on the documentary publicly, and despite the film featuring dozens of interviews with Bourdain's close friends about his life and 2018 suicide, Argento was not interviewed for it.

Argento can be seen in photos from the red carpet smiling and hugging her father in the form-fitting gown as she showed off her tattoos down her arms and on her chest.

She took to Instagram over the weekend to praise her actor and filmmaker father, writing, 'My dad is a great man... I was so proud to be there with my dad and Gaspar, so much that when the audience finally clapped in standing ovation for a time that seemed endless I couldn't hold back the tears.'
No mention was made of the documentary that delves into Bourdain's 2018 suicide at a hotel in France at the age of 61.
But last month, Argento paid tribute to the late chef for his birthday, posting a series of photos of the pair and a touching caption.
'Celebrating the most extraordinary man I have ever met. Missing you every day,' Argento wrote. 'Cherishing each moment we shared in our life together. I feel your presence and your strength. You shine so bright within me. I love you my A. Happy birthday.'
It's unclear the status of Argento's love life today, but she had been dating paparazzo Fabrizio Corona after Bourdain's death. Earlier this year she posted a selfie showing him kissing her cheek, with the caption, 'We can't explain it to you.'
And in January she posted another photo showing her kissing the same heavily-tattood man.
Argento and Bourdain's relationship is the focus of the last part of the documentary as it paints the picture that the celebrity chef had become 'addicted' to the Italian actress.
It also addresses how paparazzi photos emerged just five days before Bourdain's death of Argento embracing a male friend and holding hands in Rome.
