HERMITAGE. The Power of Art
hermitage
Featuring Toni Servillo
(The Great Beauty’s protagonist, 3 times EFA Award winner, 4 times David di Donatello Award winner)
Directed by Michele Mally
Delivery Sept. 2019

 The film treats The Hermitage as a living being. It tells the story of the daily life of the museum today continuously leaving the ‘here and now’ to retrace two and a half centuries.
A wonderful complex of buildings with the largest collection of paintings in the world. St. Petersburg and the Hermitage were a meeting point for foreign artists, architects and intellectuals creating connections through art and culture.
The history of the museum is marked by the acquisitions of the enlightened Empress Catherine II, whose personality has continued to fascinate art historians and critics over the centuries.
Toni Servillo leads us on this journey through cultural bridges between places and distant civilizations. Bridges form a symbolic visual element, that will be repeated in the narrative.

FRIDA. Viva la Vida
frida
Featuring Asia Argento
(David di Donatello Award Winner)
Directed by Giovanni Troilo
Delivery Oct. 2019

The film highlights the two sides of Frida Kahlo’s spirit: on one side the revolutionary, pioneering artist of contemporary feminism and on the other, the human being, victim of her tortured body and a tormented relationship.
With Asia Argento as narrator, the two faces of the artist will be revealed, by pursuing a common thread consisting of Frida’s own words: letters, diaries and private confessions. The film alternates interviews, with original documents, captivating reconstructions and Frida Kahlo’s own paintings, kept in some of the most amazing museums in Mexico.

TINTORETTO_POSTER_100x140_10THE PRADO MUSEUM – A COLLECTION OF WONDERS
ASSETS AVAILABLE FROM 25 MARCH 2019

How often have we thought to ourselves: if only museums could talk! This documentary would like to do just that: let the Prado speak for itself. The museum is celebrating its 200th birthday in 2019 and tells the story of its life. A spectacular journey in Madrid covering the six centuries of the history of Spain as a nation. History told through art, through the eight thousand works of art to be found in the Museum’s collections, and at the same time discovering the story behind each one. A painting is canvas, color, matter, and form, but it is also the story of men and women, painters and kings, palaces and queens, wealth and misery, body and soul.
