Italian term (edited):
film d'autore e con prestigiosi maestri
original film, and with renowned movie directors
"Original film" in the sense that it is not based on a book or play.
It is unclear as to whether s/he worked with the "prestigiosi maestri" in the "film d'autore", or in other films.

film d'auteur
You can translate the Italian into French (film d'auteur), which is acceptable to use and frequently used in English. You can even leave the Italian "maestro" in its original language with the addition of an "s" at the end: "maestros", especially if your audience is made up of film buffs/literati/or the culturally educated/elite(who may prefer "maestri"). If you prefer to translate "maestri": acclaimed directors would work.
