Jonathan Demme helms this musical documentary that shines a light on the eclectic sounds of songwriter-musician Enzo Avitabile.

In a landscape of fields and ruins, a group of figures move together, humble and mythical, poetic and popular. They are the characters of a Don Quixote reconstructed within multiple temporal dimensions and different imaginary horizons. Armed with a shield and spear as well as a profound knowledge of 20th-century literature, the Hidalgo of La Mancha comes back to life among pylons and wind turbines, unfinished buildings and archaic sculptures, accompanied by an ironic and sly Sancho Panza. Entrenched with courage in a crazy vision of the world and art, populated by angelic women and storytelling magicians, the knight errant comes to meet death and accept the inevitable mediocrity of reality.

A Donatello award nominated short animated feature based on a 17th century Neapolitan song of the sea.

Donato is traveling in a green station wagon. Perhaps he is searching for the loot from a long-forgotten heist when he finds himself coming to the aid of Norah, a woman who has been dumped and then pursued by a small-time gangster. He decides to take her along on his mysterious journey, and she stays by his side until the very end—until she discovers the reasons behind his quest.
