The third, Sicilian part of the “Films of Europe” cycle inspires from the testamentary document written by Pasolini not long before his death, which metaphorically communicated his political despair about the “disappearance of the fireflies,” and Didi-Huberman’s reply. Vincent Dieutre travels across the far south of Europe in search of today’s “fireflies” who invent a political life on a daily basis. The filmmaker finds them, on the way, in Palermo’s first gay demonstration, among the occupants of the Garibaldi Theatre, or the young militants of Lampedusa. Dieutre’s essay-film comments on contemporary Sicilian society, the state of politics in Italy and Europe today.
As the New Year approaches, Pera Film presents an alternative watchlist of 10 movies, ranging from Hollywood's timeless classics to memorable examples of modern cinema.
In this piece, Żmurko presents an exotic image of a harem chamber, replete with gleaming fabrics and scattered jewels, as a setting for the statuesquely beautiful body of an odalisque murdered “at the order of the padishah”.
Celebrating its 10th anniversary this year, Pera Museum invites artist Benoît Hamet to reinterpret key pieces from its collections, casting a humorous eye over ‘historical’ events, both imagined and factual.
