NRGiuseppe who is allergic to diminutives, leaves his mother marked by incest. Tamara, a rampant young girl, abandons her father after loving him. During his pilgrimage Giuseppe breaks many a heart but since he loves to masturbate he never gives himself and never lets himself be touched. The young man’s fame reaches the ears of Tamara who, after searching in vain finally meets him on the wane. The two fall in love, get married and are soon bored. The simplistic, theoretical Giuseppe finds his allergic attacks increasing due to syncopated forms. Tamara gets pregnant, her husband repudiates the paternity, she kills him with diminutive blows. The child is born reluctantly; it looks like its father and inherits his allergies…

2009
NRAntonio Rezza and Flavia Mastrella are two artists that use their bodies like objects. Their works are exaltations of the object compared to the subject. The interpreter is more important than the author. The role of artistic expression is to represent what is not there. Cinema is an improper weapon because it is in the wrong hands. The solution would be - according to the two artists - for cinema as well as all art to be managed by those who have imagination and who are not down to earth.

NRIs art useful to man? The actors are suited to society. Passers-by are people who want to dream but have now lost confidence, laziness on the one hand, conditioning and deschooling on the other, require you to lower your sights and everyone is content to pursue modest cheap expectations. Reality and art are not in communication, impoverished by individualism, the actors and artists dance to the rhythm imposed by power, they slaughter each other, they abuse each other without realizing the possibilities of communication that open up by moving outside the choir. Rome is occupied by every step, the foot walking lightly occupies the public land. But this occupation is not news because it is lightning fast. The criteria of employment mark the time.
