National premiere

in the presence of the director

 

A documentary film that is a portrait of a film critic as seen by a filmmaker. Contemporary cinema manipulates reality by hiding itself; this experiment by Luca Ferri manifests its opposite explicitly and overtly as an act of resistance. Through a deliberately rigid structure the filmmaker becomes superfluous during the very act of filming.
