Maria Grazia Grassini

Senza pelle

The lives of a young mother and her boyfriend are turned upside down when she unknowingly becomes the focus of the attentions of a depressed and mentally unstable young man.

Vecchie

The Remains of Nothing

Set in the 1790s, this historical drama follows the travails of an idealistic noblewoman who helps lead a daring revolution in Italy.

Riccardo III

Riccardo III is a theatre play staged in 1977 and also edited for television and aired in 1981, which Carmelo Bene dedicated to his friend Gilles Deleuze, who wrote a book about it before even seeing it. Bene strips down the original Shakespeare play to the core, rejecting plot and characters, leaving on stage only Riccardo III and his ghosts, the female characters. The TV version is characterized by an exstensive use of close-ups and strong light contrast.

Così per Gioco

While on his way to visit Father Felipe, Sandro has a car accident and dies. Commissioner Selvaggi investigates the case, directing his investigations towards a group of the man's friends addicted to gambling.

Camilla

Milan, 1945. The war is over. But life is far from easy for those who have to start from scratch, amid rubble and misery. This is the case for Camilla, a woman no longer young, abandoned by her husband at the outbreak of the conflict, with three children between the ages of 17 and 20 to raise. Based on Fausta Cialiente's novel, Un inverno freddissimo (A Very Cold Winter), published in 1966, this is the moving story of an Italian "mother courage."

Albert e l'uomo nero

Italian miniseries.
