more information

A satire on the clash between social classes, symbolised by a shipwreck: the differences seem to fade away, until they inevitably resurface.

Una tragicommedia all’italiana (An Italian-style tragicomedy), curated by Davide Oberto, is a programme that explores 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.
