Dal Pianeta Degli Umani
Giovanni Cioni
A border inspection at Ventimiglia, between Italy and France, turns into a fantastical fairy tale narrated by a chorus of frogs, wherein a scientist experiments with rejuvenation techniques using monkey testicles. Dr. Voronoff was a real person, and was world-famous in the 1920s. His villa stands on the border where migrants try to cross. But it is as if they do not exist.
From the Planet of the Humans
Per Ulisse
Giovanni Cioni
Marginalized members of Italian society gather in a meeting and welcome center. They have experienced drugs, prison and homelessness. Talking about their existence, singing and living life, they show that humanity is not lost. A visionary, poetic film referencing the masters of Italian cinema such as Pasolini and Bellocchio. A vibrant work that puts the sadness of the world to song.
