18 Italian Film Festival (continued) PIAZZA FONTANA: THE ITALIAN CONSPIRACY THE IMMATURE – THE TRIP THE RED AND THE BLUE Piazza Fontana: The Italian Conspiracy Romanzo di una strage Fri 19 Apr at 8.30pm Marco Tullio Giordana • Italy/France 2012 • 2h1m Digibeta • Italian with English subtitles • 15 Cast: Valerio Mastadrea, Pierfrancesco Favino, Michela Cescon. Marco Tullio Giordana (The Best of Youth) delivers a meticulously staged and gripping drama based on a real life story. An explosion at the Banca Nazionale dell’Agricoltura in Milan in 1969 resulted in 17 deaths and injured dozens more. The protests sweeping Europe and the fear of communism led the police to focus their investigations on anarchist groups. But the Police Commissioner is convinced it’s not that simple. Intriguingly complicated and politically nuanced, Piazza Fontana is an ever-twisting conspiracy of lies, intrigue and dirty politics. S.B.: I Knew Him Well S.B.: Io lo conoscevo bene Sat 20 Apr at 6.15pm Giacomo Durzi & Giovanni Fasanella • Italy 2012 • 1h14m Digibeta • Italian with English subtitles • 12A • Documentary How did a former cruise ship entertainer become one of the most dominant figures in Italian public life over the past 30 years? Giacomo Durzi and Giovanni Pasanella’s documentary doesn’t take the easy option of rounding up his critics and mercilessly satirising Silvio Berlusconi. Instead, it takes him seriously, genuinely seeking to understand the Berlusconi phenomenon through an intimate portrait of his life and times told in the words of those who have know him best. Slow Food Story Sun 21 Apr at 6.15pm Stefano Sardo • Italy 2013 • 1h14m Format TBC • Italian with English subtitles • 12A • Documentary Recent stories about the food industry have alarmed consumers and left them increasingly wary of mass produced, so-called convenience meals. More than twentyfive years ago, Carlo Petrini was at the forefront of a protest against the opening of a McDonald’s restaurant in Rome. It was the beginning of a movement that is now active in more than 150 countries, a movement that believes in the joy of good local ingredients, treated with respect. Stefano Sardo’s documentary is a love letter to the Slow Food Movement. Fear La paura Mon 22 Apr at 8.30pm Roberto Rossellini • West Germany/Italy 1954 • 1h24m • 16mm German with English subtitles • 15 Cast: Ingrid Bergman, Mathias Wieman, Renate Mannhardt. It is impossible not to see elements of autobiography in the final collaboration between Roberto Rossellini and Ingrid Bergman. A tale of a marriage in crisis, soured by guilt and betrayal, it has inevitable parallels with the state of their own crumbling union. Based on a story by Stefan Zweig, Fear tells of a husband who becomes aware of his wife’s infidelity. The threat of exposure and the possibility of blackmail may tempt her towards a full confession, or may well push her into a corner from which suicide seems an increasingly attractive proposition. Rossellini saw Fear as a film about post-War Germany and the way material reconstruction had masked the need for a moral solution to the nation’s legacy of shame and guilt. Screening introduced by Dr Pasquale Iannone. The Immature – The Trip Immaturi – Il viaggio Tue 23 Apr at 6.15pm Paolo Genovese • Italy 2012 • 1h40m 35mm • Italian with English subtitles • 15 Cast: Anita Caprioli, Ambra Angiolini, Raoul Bova, Barbora Bobulova, Luca Bizzarri. The star-studded sequel to Paolo Genovese’s smash hit comedy The Immature (a festival favourite in 2012) takes the reunited schoolfriends on a sun-kissed holiday to the gorgeous Greek island of Paros. It’s a time to relax, renew old acquaintance and just take pleasure in each other’s company. Well, that’s the plan anyway. A mixture of treacherous tequila, lethal watermelons, unexpected appearances from ex-girlfriends, guilty secrets and hidden tragedy test the ties of friendship to the limit in an appealing mixture of breezy comedy, beautiful picture postcard locations and surprising tenderness. The Red and the Blue Il rosso e il blu Wed 24 Apr at 8.30pm Giuseppe Piccioni • Italy 2012 • 1h40m Digibeta • Italian with English subtitles • 15 Cast: Margherita Buy, Riccardo Scamarcio, Roberto Herlitzka. IFF favourite Giuseppe Piccioni (Light of My Eyes) returns with a typically wise and witty adaptation of the Marco Lodoli novel set in a Rome school. Nothing is more important than the education of a future generation but is such a thing even possible in an age of scarce resources, undisciplined, indifferent students and careworn teachers? The blackboard jungle is seen from the perspective of an idealistic supply teacher, a cynical, eccentric professor and a headmistress who cares more than she may be willing to admit.
