THE BEST NANNI OF OUR LIFE
Night Film Marathon

WHERE
Sala Pier Paolo Pasolini
WHEN
17 november 2023, h 23:00
Choosing a path through Nanni Moretti’s cinema is beautiful – there are so many beautiful and fertile ones – and painful (excluding La messa è finita or La stanza del figlio or Habemus Papam is terrible and that is why we are already inviting him for a second marathon). One day, directors Giuseppe D’Antonio and Boris Sollazzo will recount the bloody struggle that led to this night, which will obviously end not with the usual croissants, but with an inevitable Sacher. As the director did in Il sol dell’avvenire, re-watching certain films, from Michele Apicella to Giovanni, from one of the most beautiful Italian documentaries of recent years to his latest masterpiece, is not only a way of looking back at a country, a language, a vision, but also an opportunity to fully savour a great auteur who knew how to change our gaze, our way of speaking and yes, even thinking. A master of cinema who continues to do so. In the cinema and now also in the theatre. Because Nanni Moretti is the heir of all masters – from neorealism to Italian comedy, from the nouvelle vague to Bergman, from Rosi to Petri – but he is also and above all the standard-bearer of a revolution, which began with Ecce Bombo and a theatre that saw a year-long queue of spectators outside and never finished. Nanni Moretti offers you jokes that in the evenings with friends you remember and recite, but also an interpretation of reality that, from Palombella Rossa onwards, has anticipated History.
Words are important and so, we need to write at least one more: thank you.
How to Register
You can register from 3:00 PM on October 23 until 11:59 PM on November 16, 2023.

Payment of the fee can be made on the evening of the event itself, Friday, November 17, 2023, starting at 6:00 PM in the foyer of the Pasolini Hall and by 10:00 PM
At the end of the screening, a questionnaire regarding the films viewed will be given to participants; the one who realizes the highest score will win a prize.
