6.0Director Alessandro Comodin recounts for Fuori Orario the genesis of his two films, "Summer of Giacomo" and "Happy times will come soon" and reflects on his own conception of cinema: the need for escape and movement, the adolescence of moving bodies and the perception of passing time, the importance of locations and immersion in nature, the technical practice during filming, the approach to the cinematographic medium as a way to see better and to establish a relationship of sensory capture of reality, the relationship with the actors. With references to his favorite filmmakers, from Bresson and Monteiro to Wang Bing, and to the recurring images of his films: the hole and the labyrinth, the loop of time and epilogues, the fairy tale and metamorphosis.
