What is Neorealism and what can we keep today?
Vittoria Colonna think to Neorealism as the highest point ever reached by the Italian movie industry and the element to preserve of it should be the attitude to witness the reality without fictions as well as the documentary does.
According to Giulia Fanchin neorealist movies, for their astonishing modernity, should be an inspiration for all young today’s actors.
Nicoletta Maragno and Victor Doda agree on the need for a new kind of cinematic storytelling where fiction and reality get mixed up, and the lesson of Neorealism could be a starting point.
But when the views of our guests seem to be very far at the end they all get very close, looking to the poetry as the irreplaceable element of every past and present day cinematic storytelling.
