When La Biennale di Venezia Meets History does not just convey the content that visitors to the Central Pavilion in the Giardini della Biennale will encounter, but also a vision. Disquiet serves as a driving force behind research, which requires dialogue to verify its theories and needs history to absorb knowledge. This is what La Biennale does and will continue to do as it seeks to reinforce a methodology that creates even stronger bonds between its own disciplines. There are six Muses at the Biennale: Art, Architecture, Cinema, Theatre, Music and Dance, given a voice through the great events that fill Venice and the world every year. There are the places that serve as venues for all of La Biennale’s activities: the Giardini, the Arsenale, the Palazzo del Cinema and other cinemas on the Lido, the theatres, the city of Venice itself.

    lunedì 05 martedì 13 mercoledì 25 giovedì 35 venerdì 45 sabato 57 Una iniziativa promossa da Regione Lazio Associazione Produttori Televisivi Camera di Commercio di Roma In collaborazione con Provincia di Roma Sviluppo Lazio ICE RAI e MEDIASET RomaFictionFest Il festival È da qualche anno che circola l’idea di organizzare anche in Italia un festival interamente dedicato alla fiction televisiva italiana e internazionale. Io stesso fui artefice, nel 2001, del progetto di creare al Lido di Venezia un evento del genere. Nacque nel marzo del 2002, e anche allora coinvolse l’APT, l’associazione dei produttori televisivi. Un discreto programma di telefilm, serie e miniserie, molta buona volontà ma scarsissimi mezzi. Durò una sola edizione. Venezia forse non era la città più adatta, la stagione era certamente sbagliata e, soprattutto, i finanziamenti risultarono risibili. Quando la Regione Lazio e l’APT decisero di dar vita su solide basi al festival della televisione a Roma - la città del cinema, ma anche, e sempre di più, della fiction televisiva, un’industria che nel Lazio dà lavoro a quasi centomila persone: da qui soprattutto l’attenzione della Regione - compresi che era stata fatta, finalmente, la scelta giusta. E a fine gennaio scorso accettai l’invito a dirigerlo. Ed ecco il RomaFictionFest, alla sua prima difficile, come tutte le prime, ma esaltante edizione con qualche centinaio di titoli - prescelti con un immenso lavoro fra le oltre tremila ore pervenuteci da tutto il mondo - inseriti in un programma intenso e variegato che consente di cogliere e mettere a confronto le tendenze, le tematiche, i linguaggi, le potenzialità e le differenti culture delle televisioni di gran parte del globo.

  • Marco Ferreri Retrospective 1 – 14 December at Ciné Lumière
    press release nov 06 Marco Ferreri Retrospective 1 – 14 December at Ciné lumière About the Retrospective The Italian Cultural Institute and the Institut français, London, in collaboration with Cinecittà Holding are delighted to present a fortnight-long tribute to maverick Italian director Marco Ferreri. The retrospective features a representative selection of 13 films from all four decades of his filmmaking career, and showcases impressive (and surprising) performances from some of European cinema’s finest actors, including Marcello Mastroianni, Roberto Benigni, Gérard Dépardieu, Catherine Deneuve, Philippe Noiret, Michel Piccoli and Ugo Tognazzi. A highlight of the season will be the two screenings of Ferreri’s masterpiece La Grande Bouffe (Blow-Out) on a newly-restored print provided by Cinecittà especially for the occasion. As many of Ferreri’s films received no, or very limited, UK release, this season represents a valuable opportunity for film fans to assess or re-asses the work of one of Italian – and world – cinema’s most singular talents.
