Fernanda Wittgens joined the Brera Museum in 1928, and after a few years she was its director. Courageous and visionary, during the war she saved artworks from the bombings, aided political opponents of Fascism and Jewish families in fleeing the regime, and was imprisoned for her actions. After Italy’s liberation, she rebuilt the Brera and championed its being open and accessible to one and all. Yet despite her groundbreaking policies, she was forgotten after her death. This film seizes on that absence. Calling on the actress Sara Drago, who lends her face and voice to Wittgens in her letters, and the art historian Giovanna Ginex, the filmmakers create a collaborative space in which the past, the present, and their interpretations are intertwined. Fernanda, albeit invisible, is a living presence.

If all rights belong to the living, nothing is left to the dead. So what happens when the dead have lost their identity? In the face of this growing multitude, no one seems concerned about their right to dignity.No one but Cristina.

Every month, hundreds of unemployed nurses travel from the south to the north of Italy in search of work. Two of them organise the trips by overnight buses; a long journey of hope that often leads to nothing at all. Shot as a road movie, the two filmmakers paint a pitiless portrait of modern Italy before, during and after the health crisis.

16 June 1990, Palazzo Grassi, Venice. The guests enter and are welcomed by Gianni Agnelli, alongside Jay and Cindy Pritzker. ​“Architecture, like all art, is universal, as is science, as is intelligence”, states Gianni Agnelli. Aldo Rossi is, in fact, the first Italian architect to receive the Pritzker Architecture Prize. Rare material and video archives, previously unreleased records, pictures, and family albums are combined with writing from the remarkable architect to create the first documentary that traces Aldo Rossi Design.

This is a documentary about being in love, falling out of love and the fragility of human bonds. It is very intimate, like a diary or a conversation overheard by chance.

Trees that walk is a documentary based on an idea of the Italian writer Erri De Luca and it was filmed in Trentino and Puglia, Italy. This documentary wants to recount the life of the trees and their deep relationship with people that every day work hard to give to the wood a second life. What happens in this second life of the wood, when it becomes boats for sailing and musical instruments for playing... The trees is the opposite of movement: it dies where it's born. But there exists a second life that starts as soon as its saps stop flowing inside its vessels: forests became fleets that explored the world's geography while writing the Romance of the Earth.

A public and private portrait of Marcelo Burlon, one of the most fascinating and influential personalities on the current fashion scene, a figure who is both loved and hated at the same time.
