An unfinished film, a director who’s nowhere to be found, a producer at his wits’ end. And in the midst of it all, the looming spectre of Carmelo Bene.

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 Lucky Red.
