Daria is getting married, and Antonio is the best man. They are two artists who have lived in the same building for years, but now she’s moving to another neighborhood. They get to work on a new project inspired by Federico Fellini’s Ginger and Fred, and bring in Emanuele, Monica, Francesco, Martina, and Andrea. First, tap dancing classes, as the script comes together one day at a time, with rehearsals in Rome, Rimini and France, in theaters shut down by Covid-19. Euphoria is running high, despite the uncertain times, and our theater troupe starts to resemble a gaggle of shipwreck survivors, bewildered by the way real life gets confounded with what is tentatively shaping up as the stage production.

Documentary follows the experimental drama course given by the old Italian theatre and opera legend Lucio Ronconi every summer in a remote corner of Umbria, where young, dedicated acting talent rehearse several plays.

More than eighty years ago, a girl was born into a poor farming family in Tuscany, Ultimina, which was to be the last of many children. Ultimina is an animated and expressive storyteller. The greatest editor in Italian cinema films her with affectionate respect and simplicity.

Impressive and dramatic found-footage documentary about the worldwide issue of emigration and immigration.

Marisa is a film for Marisa, my mother, Marisa Rusconi who has been gone for a year. I wanted to tell this personal story, with vaguely biographical elements of Marisa and my sensations on detachment and life, using films from the Rai archive on the subject of migration. In this material, broad and open to the world, I found the elements with which I built the backbone of the film. Then I inserted images and sounds recorded by me in the last few months and fragments of Super 8 filmed by my father, Franco, in the 60s.

The hard-working brothers Lorello and Brunello are filmed throughout the seasons on their farm in Tuscany. Their efforts look like a labour of Sisyphus, in which all progress is destroyed by prices on the world market and the return of packs of wolves hunting sheep. Respectful, detailed and filled with earthly beauty.

Static is film shot and stored in a dry, safe place away from mice and laboratory vermin. It ceases to be static when it is withdrawn and made into a post-applied story, situation, sensation.
