A crime comedy about the crazy night of a rapper and his manager

Radiopornopanda

Through the real life of Pandina and Pandone, RADIOPORNOPANDA explores the world of paid online couple shows. The journey of a couple who have made this type of expression their professional activity, told through the voyeuristic gaze of the director.

White Clouds

30 minutes of moving clouds above the earthly elements: buildings, tower blocks, high voltage pylons, etc. Their movement reminds us that time and life flow inexorably.

Natale a Roccaraso

Two boys inherit a hotel from their uncle.

The Last Playboy

The story of 70-year-old Maurizio Candidi, an old-style playboy who loves the high life and had more than one thousand women. Between myth and reality, clarity and voyeurism, the figure of a melancholic seducer emerges.

Young Aliens

Young Aliens is the total immersion in the life of a couple who can’t convey their emotions. The surrounding world appears as desolate as their relationship is made up of only looks. Contact between the two is minimal and lacking in empathy.

Ira

Ira translates as “Anger,” but the titular emotion isn’t often conveyed by the unnamed man and woman at the center of this subdued Italian drama set on the grim fringes of society. Instead, they spend their nights working—he in the market, she on the streets—or wandering restlessly and relentlessly around their dark, decaying city. Writer/director Mauro Russo Rouge follows his characters as they drive down roads lit by the yellow glow of streetlights, push through the crowds at a pink-hued nightclub, pick up supplies in a glaringly bright supermarket, and meander down sidewalks with drinks in hand. They rarely emerge into the sunlight; most of the action takes place in claustrophobic indoor spaces or in the cold, gray light of dusk or dawn. So, too, do their expressions remain withdrawn—even when their nascent relationship triggers a decisive act of violence.

Colorful Brain

Colorful brain is the representation of multiple actions that always have 2 people together as a leitmotif. Couples sometimes have feelings of love, sometimes of hate. The change in colorimetry has the function of sweetening even the most tense actions.

Flickering

What is behind the flickering of a light bulb? Flickering explores the internal filaments as they move in space and how they change.

Liquid Love

A woman is dancing in a nightclub, but her man is in love with another woman. Time passes, and liquid love disappears.

Movements

An isolated tale of alienation. The sounds are often disconnected from the context of the images. The images of the rooms alternate with those of the protagonist and his long walks at night.

Free Your Mind

A sincere thought for all those people who always have too much to blame themselves. Free your mind for a moment. Breathe. The result is extraordinary.

Multicolor

Fifty-three minutes of moving clouds. Changes in light, shapes, and colors characterize their unique and inevitable path.

Ghost Girl

Ghost Girl tells the story of an indissoluble love in a metaphysical key. The experience manifests itself through acting and, above all, through colors.

Shapes

Shapes is a suggestive and hypnotic multicolored path. The sounds reveal the true essence of the forms giving rise to particular sensations through a game of concentration on several levels. The extradiegetic ambient music emphasizes the atmospheric mood.
