The Moon Beneath the Water

A portrait of the community of Erto, in the Dolomites, which 60 years ago suffered a huge human disaster, due to external ambition and avidity, and still fights for dignity and recognition. Over 10 years, we see the efforts of the community splinter due to the proposal of an art installation on the dam, at the origin of the disaster. While for the mayor and the art curator it could be a way for the village to look forward, many alert it would be another step in making the people forget the tragedy.

Napalm Girl. The Journey of a Photo

Through exclusive testimonies and clandestine videos, this documentary gives voice to courageous women in Iran who risked their lives to share their stories and to prominent women in culture, art and academia who were forced to leave their beloved country.

La seconda chance

Max and Anna Mancini have been married for 25 years and have two teenage children. The two boys, although they are twins, are characteristically antipodes: Tina is rebellious and little studious; Nico is calm, lonely and has the obsession of video games. There is a constant war between parents and children, which reaches its peak on the day of the twins' 18th birthday, when the party at home, which had been granted to them, degenerates. Max and Anna realize they don’t know anything about those two teenagers, they wonder where they went wrong and think back with nostalgia to the times when Tina and Nico were adorable wrens to protect. But do they really remember what happened? At the end of that disastrous evening, there is a second chance for Anna and Max, to see clearly in the relationship with their children and try, where possible, not to repeat the same mistakes.

The Endless Road

An ancient territorial axis along which a part of the city has been structured. By virtue of its rank, this road will continue to play an ordering role within the city, i.e. the role of a modern armour, becoming the testimony of large complexes and spaces that, since the mid-19th century, have articulated the expanding city and given shape to its new needs: a psychiatric hospital, a cemetery, factories, a shopping centre, an amusement park. These places reject the logic of urban homogeneity, imposing themselves as coherent, autonomous realities. Some authors call these (separate and differently regulated) places ‘heterotopies’. In these places, the spatial dissolution that characterizes contemporary cities is enormously amplified. Boundaries, which are in themselves uncertain, definitively fade, whereby any act of delimitation or attribution of relevance becomes utterly impossibl

Ask The Sand

ASK THE SAND is the journey of a father and a son in search of the utopian city of Arcosanti, city of the future built in 1970 in the Arizona desert by the Italian architect Paolo Soleri (1919-2013), a student of Frank Lloyd Wright. A journey that is also a father's birthday gift to a son who becomes a man. Soleri is one of the most important characters of the twentieth century, still forgotten, and his life is told with the virgin eyes of an aspiring architect with very open antennas about what is happening in the world and what each of us can do to help improve it.

Il re fanciullo

Once upon a time, there was a castle on a mounting, with a man inside. The man placed all the conflict and all the beauty of the world inside the castle. His name was Franz. He came by foot from the Alps, leaving behind a history of violence, and he dedicated his life to the creation of a cenaculum for the arts to redeem himself from the trauma of fascism. Over the course of a ten-year story, as his latest young artist grows up, the gallery owner takes possession of her memories and approaches death.

Cipria - Il film della vostra vita

Cipria is a ghost film: three Italian women who lived during fascism had told their lives hoping they could become a film, but the war had shattered the dream. We didn't even have an image of them: only the stories, still current, of their lives, which had been waiting for eighty years to be seen and heard. The challenge was to visualize their stories with footage shot between the 1920s and 1940s and new footage, to give each of them a face, a voice and a body.

L'impero della natura. Una notte al Parco del Colosseo

The Colosseum Archaeological Park is a natural habitat for wildlife that has transformed it into a unique ecosystem in the world. Here, humans have disappeared, leaving their only trace in the gigantic ruins and the splendid monuments of their past glory. The new empire belongs to nature. The only humans who set foot here, when tourists depart, are biologists and naturalists who monitor the present species, some of which are particularly rare and difficult to spot.
