"A partire dal Dolce brings together "portraits-interventions" of a dozen or so thinkers, artists, friends of Gianfranco Baruchello (including extremely rare footage of Jean-François Lyotard), who comment on the concept of the "dolce" (gentle/soft/sweet)" Claudine Eizykman, Les Rendez-vous du Cinéma Expérimental, February 2000

A remarkable walk through the life and work of the French artist Marcel Duchamp (1887-1968), one of the most important creators of the 20th century, revolutionary of arts, aesthetics and pop culture.

The film is the story of the crude destruction, meticulously done by the artist himself, of a frozen turkey produced in America. The meat is placed in a wooden box and buried in a grave in a field. Dedicated to the fundamental concepts of the ‘lay military priesthood’ (terminology typical of the generals): discipline, honour and other sacred duties, the film is part of a trilogy by Baruchello against the Vietnam War. —Tate Modern

In one of the three films Gianfranco Baruchello made in 1968 in response to the war in Vietnam, the artist carefully washes hundreds of coins in a bathtub, and then proceeds to cook and serve them at table.
