About Vittorio De Seta: The Filmmaker Is an Athlete
This portrait of a film director unlike any other attempts to capture the essence of Vittorio de Seta’s rapport with the humble people he filmed and elegantly brought to Cinema Scope’s big screen in color from the 1950s onwards. From his home in Calabria, the film director looks back over his epic films.
Directed by Barbara Vey, Vincent Sorrel, Vittorio De Seta: The Filmmaker Is an Athlete leans on a strong ensemble — Vittorio De Seta, Andrea Mainardi, Vera Dragone — 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 2010.
