“PER AGNESE” – Film short dedicated to the 50th anniversary of Trieste’s return to Italy

INTRODUCTORY NOTE
Minimal story, new invasions. Memory is the result of the passage of a collectivity, the mark that a group of people was able to leave in the place it occupied. A collectivity, though, is made of single lives, lives with their unique and diverse paths, not linked closely to a same place or past but rather transverse to it, almost tangent. So what is memory and how can it become collective? Probably in the overlapping between the moment when the memories of individuals are recorded in a shared substratum and when private experience provides the subsoil for collective memory. At times I stick my foot into this furrow and follow it for a while. It reminds me of the furrows left by the ploughs before sowing. If the winter is not too harsh, something will grow.

Review: “FROM A BOOK TO FILMS”

THE IDEA…
There are more and more cases of readers who love a particular book or a particular writer but are very disappointed about the outcome of the screen adaptation of their favourite book. And then there are those super-critics, that is to say those readers who delve into a film to find the weak link in the chain, the scene to be most tampered with, the moment farthest from the author's magical creation to rant against the director.
