The Invisible Wall
7.2/10
June 27, 1980, an Italian DC 9 flying from Bologna to Palermo falls in the sea close to the Ustica island. 81 people die. The official version is "structure failure" of the airplane, but a number of clues lead the journalist Rocco Ferrante toward a different truth. Thanks to his perseverance against the invisible wall erected by air force officers, politicians, judges, secret agents, we come to know that, with all probability, the DC 9 has been mistakenly shot by a missile during a sort of air fight among U.S., French and Libyan top guns.
La settimana della sfinge
6.3/10
On the Dark Continent
5.1/10
In the 1950s, a big stir was made by a book (and its corresponding movie) called The Ugly American. Its subject was the grievous damage done to local cultures by well-meaning but essentially clueless (and frequently arrogant) representatives of the U.S. Since then, the phenomenon of cultural damage cause by arrogant tourists and visitors has been demonstrated to be something everyone is capable of. In this thoughtful, comic drama, the subject is Italians overseas. In this film, Malindi Kenya is the playground of rich Italians.

dove non siamo stati

Luca's mother orders Paolo to leave the house. A guy takes Paolo to him's, looking for a partner in the night.

While the dawn is coming, Paolo reads about the murders on the newspapers, and realizes that what happened was reality.
Il peggio di noi
At the end of his latest film, Palabras, Corso Salani indicts against his own crew. A long monologue goes on, while the images of the casting, of the rehearsals, of the set, flow. Lead actress Paloma Calle and the whole crew are accused of destroying the deep artistic and personal bind between Salani and his actress. In doing so, they helped in making the two drift apart. The film is now over, but emotions and feelings felt don't seem to fade out. The frames become the background of a love letter which is violent and desperate, the sign of wasted time, of the bitterness of what is and what could have been.
