I clandestini del cinema italiano

Antonio Rezza and Flavia Mastrella are two artists that use their bodies like objects. Their works are exaltations of the object compared to the subject. The interpreter is more important than the author. The role of artistic expression is to represent what is not there. Cinema is an improper weapon because it is in the wrong hands. The solution would be - according to the two artists - for cinema as well as all art to be managed by those who have imagination and who are not down to earth.

Directed by Paolo Brunatto, I clandestini del cinema italiano leans on a strong ensemble — Antonio Rezza, Flavia Mastrella, Valentino Zeichen — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 2006.
