MAXXI auditorium
free admission, subject to availability
year of production: 1968
running time: 125’

Carmelo Bene brings himself to the big screen: blurred memories, martyrs and Turks, horror and comedy in a whirlwind of sounds, images and poetry.

Una tragicommedia all’italiana (An Italian-style tragicomedy), curated by Davide Oberto, is a programme designed to explore how Italian cinema has transformed social tensions and bourgeois vacuity into comedy – often tragic and ironic – oscillating between biting satire, social criticism and the grotesque.

In collaboration with Minerva Pictures Group.
