Love and Metamorphoses

A few kilometers away from Rome, the sand dunes of Sabaudia, the Circeo marshes and Arpino’s mountain waterfalls become the backdrops to fabulous transformations: Callisto is changed into a bear, Jupiter metamorphoses into Diane, Glaucus becomes a sea monster and the nymph Salamachis melds into the body of the young Hermaphrodite. But each of these transformations also plays on those of their performers, thus giving a new twist to Ovid’s Metamorphoses, written before and during his exile from the Roman Empire, and questioning the role of gender and identity in our society.

Finché morte non ci separi

"Finché morte non ci separi" is set in Paradise, where Delia (Carla Signoris) enjoys the peace of the afterlife reading and learning English. Her tranquility is disturbed by the arrival of Lidia (Amanda Sandrelli) who claims to be her soulmate. However, Delia is confused. If her soulmate is here, what happened to her husband Andrea? (Davide Gaudiosi). The Lost Souls office might be able to help her understand: the Angel (Filippo Scicchitano) in charge of the office gives her unexpected news—not only has Andrea been dead for quite some time, but he's in Hell. To convince Delia that this isn't a mistake, the Angel shows her her husband's "soul statement," and then, faced with her continued disbelief, allows her to revisit some scenes from her past as a young woman (Francesca Blasutig) with him. Delia chooses to take a risk by accepting the possibility the Angel offers her: to return to her previous life to try to rewrite her own story.

A Man Falling

Foreclosed to the future, hope is in the past. Foreclosed the space, hope is inside time. We haven't seen each other again. It was not our mouth and nose that were covered with a mask, but our eyes. We couldn't see each other during the pandemic. The mask was on the eyes like that of the protagonist of Chris Marker's film, La Jetée. Perhaps it is from this film that is so important that one could start looking at the world again,try to figure out how much of what we were has been deposited in the filters of memorial.
