HE’S NOT SCARED

The most brilliant, beloved, unsettling writer on the Italian literary scene, Niccolò Ammaniti, for decades has been plundered several times from Italian cinema. Since 2018 he has chosen TV to get directly involved with moving images. And we discovered an excellent director, a brave and disruptive author and a director of actors like few others. “Il miracolo” and “Anna” had a resounding success, but above all they have changed the grammar of the small screen in Italy. For this and much more Niccolò Ammaniti deserves the title of Maestro, in other cases inflated and abused. At Linea d’Ombra he will tell us the parable of a career in which the impression is that the best is yet to come.

Born in 1986, Dea Kulumbegashvili is Georgian writer/director based in Tbilisi. Her debut short film Invisible Spaces was nominated for a Palme d’Or du Court Métrage at the Cannes Film Festival in 2014. It was also the first film from independent Georgia to be part of the Official Competition at the Cannes Film Festival. Dea’s second short film Léthé premiered at the 2016 Cannes Film Festival in the Directors’ Fortnight selection continue…

Dea Kulumbegashvili  won with her film  “Beginning”  the  “Best Film Award” assigned by the Expert Jury in the category Passaggi d’Europa.

Born in 1966 in Hilden, Germany. Before studying for her Masters in directing and screenwriting at the prestigious Zurich University of the Arts, Stefanie Klemm attended courses in german studies and psychology. This diverse background, as well as over 10 years experience in the film industry, give her unique capabilities both as a director and as an entrepreneur with her own film production company. As well as commissioned pieces, she directs and produces shorts continue…

At the end of “CortoEuropa Block D” screening, Q&A with the  Directors of the film “Shift” Chiara Marotta and Loris Giuseppe Nese.
Live stream from Sala Pasolini.

Valeria Golino is cinema. The film interpreted in Hollywood – with which she became an ironic icon – would make her a mix between Meryl Streep and Marisa Tomei and here in Italy it makes her an actress capable of embodying stories, characters, lives otherwise impossible only to imagine for others. As a filmmaker she has become an explorer of pain and intimacy with the same decisive grace with which she acts, with the originality of a sweet and merciless gaze on the world and human relationships. It can be said that any film, directed or starred by her, could not have existed without her. And that her way of telling, as an actress and as an author, is unrepeatable and inimitable.

OFF RECORDS #Intersection
Immersive Show
L’ATLANTE DELLE MERAVIGLIE

The Brandenburg concertos creative ferments regenerating the soul is a multidisciplinary artistic project.

The immersive show combines different arts (music, cinema and the language of animation) together with new technologies to celebrate the 300th anniversary of the creation of the 6 Brandenburg concertos (1721-2021), tell the life of Bach, and thus bring young audiences closer to the German composer, but with a modern and captivating language.

The project has an educational purpose for the younger generation and also allows classical music lovers to appreciate it in a new way.

As Disney did with Fantasia, Manganelli’s show uses musical segments, accompanies them with animation and with the character of Bach who tells about himself.

WE HAVE NEVER BEEN GOOD AT PLAYING FOOTBALL

We have never been good at football. And thank goodness. Because if that brilliant collective called The Jackal got lost on the soccer fields instead of in Google now we had to tell and others would tell another story. They have revolutionized the language of the network in Italy, they have hybridized other languages (from football to Sanremo), they have made big movies with the most daring bet, dedicating themselves to science fiction, a taboo genre in Italy, they have created phenomena of costume – from Gomorra to Despacito – and idioms. All by inventing a new way of working, creating and staying in commerce. And this is only the beginning.

SHOOTING STAR

Conversation with Alessandro Capitani

The film “I nostri fantasmi” confirms that we have a new great director, after the award-winning short “Bellissima” and the debut of “In viaggio con Adele”. And a festival has the desire to celebrate the big ones as well as to discover young directors and actors, to chaperone them and to highlight them. Alessandro Capitani, who already has a lot of experience, is at the beginning of what will be a bright career and with him we investigate both the past and tomorrow. Starting from “I nostro fantasmi”, a ghost-story that soon becomes something different. A lot different.
