Cinevitaj v tomto roku otvorí divadelný a filmový herec Carmine Maringola, ktorý uvedie film režisérky Emmy Dante Ulica v Palerme. Filmová prehliadka však bude venovaná predovšetkým Paolovi Sorrentinovi a potom Neapolu. Ponúkne prierez hranou tvorbou oscarového režiséra s lektorskými úvodmi filmového historika Juraja Oniščenka. Paolo Sorrentino je hrdý Neapolčan, svoj pohľad na Neapol nám však ponúknu prostredníctvom svojich filmov Matteo Garrone, či Ferzan Ozpetek. Dokument Ferrante Fever objasňuje, prečo sa Neapolská sága Eleny Ferrante stala takmer svetovým fenoménom.

V jedno nedeľné popoludnie neľútostne veje na Palermo horúci juhovýchodný vietor. Dve ženy, Rosa a Clara, ktoré prišli osláviť svadbu svojho kamaráta, zablúdia v uliciach mesta a skončia v malej uličke Via Castellana Bandiera. V tej istej chvíli, v tej istej uličke oproti nim, v protismere prichádza ďalšie auto, v ktorom je natlačená rodina Calafiore a šoféruje ho Samira. Ani Rosa za volantom svojho Fiatu Multipla, ani tvrdohlavá Samira vo svojom Fiate Punto nemieni dať prednosť tej druhej. Dve ženy, zatvorené vo svojich vozidlách, stoja oproti sebe v nemom súboji, v intímnom násilí pohľadov. Súboj v ženskom vydaní, v ktorom sú obe strany odhodlané odoprieť si pitie, jedlo i spánok. Je to súboj neústupnejší, než palermské slnko a tvrdošijnejší, než prudkosť mužov, ktorí ich obklopujú. Pretože tak ako v každom súboji, je to otázka života a smrti...

The debut feature by acclaimed Italian director Paolo Sorrentino (La Grande Bellezza) is a stylish and blackly comic look at the dark side of fame. Evocatively set during the eighties, the film charts the decline of two men both named Antonio Pisapia who lead entirely separate yet strangely parallel lives. One (Toni Servillo, Gomorrah) is a pop singer who finds himself washed up after a sex scandal ends his run of success; the other (Andrea Renzi) a football hero whose playing career is abruptly cut short by injury. Sharply observed and featuring excellent performances from the two leads, Sorrentino's compelling film explores the personal consequences wrought by cruel reversals of fortune. Show more
Everyone has an unmentionable secret. But Titta Di Girolamo has more than one. It's obvious. Otherwise why would a fifty-year-old man, from the south, want to live for eight years in an anonymous hotel room in an anonymous town in the Italian part of Switzerland? Eight years without working. Apparently. Years of silence and cigarettes, years perched in the lobby or the hotel bar, elegantly dressed, but never allowing himself any luxuries. Show more

One day he is asked by a man to lend him money for the wedding of Rosalba, his daughter. Geremia falls in love at first sight with the bewitching creature and and soon indulges in a "beauty and the beast" relationship... Show more

The story of an aging writer who bitterly recollects his passionate, lost youth. A portrait of today's Rome. Rome, in the splendor of summer. Tourists flock to the Janiculum Hill: a Japanese man collapses, felled by such beauty. Jep Gambardella – a handsome man with irresistible charm, despite the first signs of ageing – enjoys the city’s social life to the full. He attends chic dinners and parties, where his sparkling wit and pleasant company are always welcome. A successful journalist and inveterate seducer, in his youth he wrote a novel which earned him a literary award and a reputation as a frustrated writer. He masks his disenchantment behind a cynical attitude, which makes him view the world with bitter lucidity. On the terrace of his Rome apartment which overlooks the Coliseum, he hosts parties where “the human apparatus” – that was the title of his novel – is stripped bare, and where the comedy of nothingness is played out. Weary of his lifestyle, Jep sometimes dreams of taking up his pen again, haunted by memories of a youthful love which he still hangs on to. But will he ever manage it? Can he overcome this profound disgust for himself and others, in a city whose dazzling beauty sometimes leads to paralysis? Show more

But someone wants at all costs to hear him conduct again. Show more
Tento film je putovaním, ktoré začína v Amerike a končí v uličkách Neapola, je to pohľad na dielo Eleny Ferrante prostredníctvom miest, ktoré sú dejiskom jej románov a cez pohľad a interpretáciu významných osobností, ktorí sú zároveň jej obdivovateľmi aj kritikmi. Poznámky režiséra: Tento film sa zrodil z vášne, ktorú prechovávam ku knihám Eleny Ferrante a z túžby preskúmať jej dielo v jeho komplexnosti. Je to pokus o zamyslenie sa nad úspechom Eleny Ferrante a jeho dôvodmi bez toho, aby sme sa nechali uniesť „bulvárnou snahou“ o pátranie po neznámej identite a zároveň sme sa snažili vyhnúť jednoduchému zdokumentovaniu faktografie. Našou výzvou bolo vyrozprávanie príbehu, ktorý možno nechcel byť vyrozprávaný. Show more

Situácia sa zvrhne, keď sa Adriana zapletie do zločinu, a následne sa ocitáva v centre pátrania, uprostred znepokojujúcich okolností. Je to otras, ktorý ohrozuje všetky jej istoty. V Neapole ponorenom do čara a zmyselnosti, rácia i šialenstva, zahaľuje život Adriany tajomstvo. Adriany, pohltenej nečakanou láskou a násilným zločinom. Show more
