Twenty Minutes in Milan

An amateur documentary made as a tribute to the Milanese city. The camera lingers on its most characteristic sites, particularly along the Navigli (the Martesana). It shows elements that today have almost entirely vanished from the modern urban landscape: people washing clothes in the canal, sheep grazing in fields that had briefly escaped the construction of apartment blocks, and a hunting outing that begins on foot from the city—still visibly connected, along its edges, to the rural world.

Sergio Leone: The Italian Who Invented America

To mark the recent thirtieth anniversary of Sergio Leone’s death, this documentary sets out to pay tribute to one of the great legends of world cinema. The singular artistic vision of Sergio Leone has transcended national borders, creating the Spaghetti Western genre and transforming the international cinematic panorama forever with his innovative stylistic and narrative solutions, which have now become part of the language of the movies. The film, which is enriched with precious archive footage from the Cineteca di Bologna, including rare audio recordings and film clips shot behind the scenes, sees for the first time the direct participation of the Leone family and has interviews both with Leone’s longtime collaborators and with icons of Hollywood who have been profoundly influenced by his work.
