Documents and Documentaries 2018
This section has some real gems: Mi ricordo, sì, io mi ricordo, a documentary film about Marcello Mastroianni directed by Anna Maria Tatò in 1997, and Carosello che passione, in which Luciano Emmer reconstructs the dawn of Italian TV advertising (and the history of one of the TV shows that shaped the collective imagination of the Italian baby boomer generation) with the precision and vitality of a great documentary filmmmaker. And that is not all: The Legend of the Ugly King, a compelling portrait, exploring the life and works of Yilmaz Güney; Ma vie en Allemagne au temps de Hitler, a montage of striking found footage showing Germany under the dark, towering shadow of swastika, with the voice of Ute Lemper; a fascinating and hypnotic Voyage au Congo by André Gide and Marc Allegret; and a few episodes of Chris Marker’s extraordinary documentary L’Heritage de la Chouette (1989) in which by ‘stripping’ twelve words of Greek origin and interviewing intellectuals and politicians, Marker explores the cultural legacy of Ancient Greece and how it has shaped our minds.
