Reviews Franco La Magna

Linguisticamente impeccabile e originale sottrae le lungaggini dell'intervista con immagini fantasmatiche. Bravo

transl:

Impeccable video language and originates embezzles them the longer of normal interview with fantastic images. Bravo

Umberto Rossi

L'ho trovato particolarmente interessante, oltre che per l'alto livello professionale, per il rapporto che riesce ad instaurare fra creatività artistica e degrado urbano, fra immaginazione al potere e potere senza immaginazione.

transl:

I have found particularly interesting, beyond that for the high professional level, the relationship that succeeds to establish between artistic creativity and city degradation, between imagination to the power and power without imagination.

Massimo Causo

Se c'è una cosa che apprezzo in chi produce immagini è la voglia/capacità di guardare ad altezza d'uomo, non cercare la linea dell'orizzonte a tutti i costi, ma osservare con curiosità e partecipazione ciò che ha sotto gli occhi. Ed è quello che è stato fatto in questo lavoro.

transl:

If there is something that I appreciate in who produces images it is it wants/ability to watch to height of man, not to try the line of the horizon at all costs, but to observe with curiosity and participation what that it has under the eyes. And it is what it has been made in this job.

Pierfranco Bianchetti

appartieni ( lo sospettavo..) proprio al mondo artistico - intellettuale di Napoli; a coloro che tengono alto il nome della città; a chi che cerca di esprimersi nella circolazione delle idee senza le quali una società è destinata al fallimento.Quindi non posso che essere contento di questa tua incursione tra musicisti, poeti ed artisti partenopei

transl:

you belong (I suspected it.) to the artistic world - intellectual of Naples; to those who they hold high the name of the city; to that which tries to express itself in the circulation of the ideas without a society is destined to the failure. Therefore I cannot that to be happy of this your incursion between Napolitans musicians, poets and artists

Crossing a painted Vesuvius


The film is an exploration of art. It attempt to uncover the meaning of art in dreams of young artists set to musical clips of contemporary Italian musicians, watching by their eyes illusion or passion.
