Claudio Caligari

A story set in the 90s and in the outskirts of Rome to Ostia. A world where money, luxury cars, night clubs, cocaine and synthetic drugs are easy to run. A world in which Vittorio and Cesare, in their early twenties, act in search of their success.

A former policeman turns full-time robber and goes on a downward spiral of crime in 1970s Rome.

The alienating and repetitive life of a group of heroin junkies in 1980s Rome.

This documentary intends to contribute to the analysis of the drugs problem, by studying a huge district in a peripheral area of a large city: the Mirafiori South suburb of Turin, a vast ghetto where 15.000 people live in huge 9/10-storey buildings without any social services.

For a long time, psychoanalysis failed to make inroads into Italy. Idealism, Catholicism and fascism each regarded it as a pseudo-science, while Marxism saw it as a bourgeois ideology. It was only after 1968 that the situation gradually began to change: numerous groups were founded who took their bearings from Lacan, such as the Milan collective Semiotica e psicoanalisi, who organized an international conference on the subject of madness in 1976.

Divided into three parts (two documentary and one fictional), the film explores the early stages of the 1977 movement, between demonstrations and heated assemblies at the Circoli del Proletariato Giovanile of the State University of Milan. The daily difficulties and the search for redemption are told without rhetoric, but with a raw reflection on social marginalization.
