Il tocco di Piero

The story of Italian soundtrack composer Piero Umiliani, from his post-war beginnings in the jazz combos of the Allies, to being one of the first to experiment with lounge and electronic music in Italy.

Scherza con i fanti

Are Italians good people? debatable. But ours are, without any doubt, not warlike people, also because the millenary history of the country has seen too many wars, violence and pestilences. starting from this particular historical condition, Scherza con i fanti wants to be a universal hymn to peace, but above all it presents itself as a journey that passes through recent Italian history, exploring the difficult and even ironic relationship of the population with the military world and, in general, with power through four war diaries.

Leave the Saints Alone

A journey through Italy across a century of popular religious devotion. Ancient and more recent saints, white and black Madonnas, devotional processions... are the expression of a need for the sacred that seems very distant from our way of being, but perhaps is not that distant at all. Today, especially in the South, but with some “isolated” locations in the North, popular faith is still a very real thing, which finds its finest expression in song and in music.

Bozzetto non troppo

For the first time, a film about what's inside, behind, before, beneath and in the pockets of Italian animation legend Bruno Bozzetto.

Refugees in Cinecittà

Cinecitta, the great movie studio built by Mussolini, became universally known as 'Hollywood on the Tiber' and as Fellini's second home. But in an interim period (1944-50) it served very different functions, quite unlike that of a dream factory. Under the Nazi occupation of Rome it was a transit camp for deportees, then following the liberation, it was transformed by the Allies into one of the largest displaced persons camps in Italy.

Uomini forti

The epic of Hercules and Maciste to the live voices of witnesses and through the images of the Italian film journals. And through interviews with Carlo Lizzani, Enrico Lucherini, Citto Maselli, Rosalba Neri, Mimmo Palmara, Carlo Verdone.

One Man Up

Naples, 1980. Two men, both named Antonio Pisapia, see their lives going downhill. One is a crooner embroiled in a sex scandal; the other is a football player whose career is cut short by an injury.
