The 13th edition of the Rome Film Festival got into full swing over the weekend, focusing on high-quality films and events showcasing film stars, experts and the public. The festival began on Thursday and will run through October 28 with many more stars and premieres in the coming days.
    This year's edition will not have an international jury, only a prize awarded by the public and an emphasis on movies regardless of whether they have been screened before. One of the world premieres is 'Muse e Dei', a documentary that brings together the late well-known Italian film directors Dino Risi, Ettore Scola and Michelangelo Antonioni and the muses that inspired them.
    Much has been written about these men, the director of the documentary Gianfrancesco Lazotti told ANSA, "but the women, the actresses in their films, manage to have a more original perspective and highlight a few aspects a bit more". Some of the actresses making "an appearance" in the film, either in interviews or through archival material, are Ornella Muti, Alessandra Panaro, Catherine Spaak, Fanny Ardant, Isabella Ferrari, Giovanna Ralli, Stefania Sandrelli, Lucia Bosè and Monica Vitti.
    In another documentary, 'Le Avventure Del Lupo - La Storia Quasi Vera di Stefano Benni " by Enza Negroni, the Italian satirical writer, poet and journalist's life is brought to life.
    It will debut at MAXXI in the 'Riflessi ' section and later come out on DVD for Feltrinelli Real Cinema and broadcast by LaEffe. "Kursk" is instead a 2018 English-language French-Belgian drama directed by Thomas Vinterberg and based on Robert Moore's book "A Time to Die".
    It revolves around the story story of the 2000 Kursk submarine disaster in the Barents Sea and deals with such issues as families, injustice, men against bureaucracy, indignation towards politics, love, anger, loss and death. The 118 people onboard died in the incident, with 23 not immediately killed but who ended up dying before rescuers could get to them. The film will be released in Italian cinemas in 2019 and showcases the human tragedy as well as the Russian initial indecisiveness towards accepting international help. Vinterberg said that Putin does not appear in the film but that "there was no intimidation from Russians on the basis of the decision not to include him". Then there is the Italian Manfredi Lucibello's film "Tutte le Mie Notti" starring Barbora Bobulova, Benedetta Porcaroli and Alessio Boni.
    The film features young prostitutes, wealthy businessmen, excesses, fears, fragility and lies as part of a 'duel' between two women.The protagonists of the duel are a strict lawyer from an important law firm (Bobulova) under a no-holds-barred businessman (Boni) and a 17-year-old named Sara (Porcaroli) who believes she can handle her secret life. "Characters like Sara or like the one I play in 'Baby' (a series on the Rome scandal of very young prostitutes that will debut on Netflix in November)," Porcaroli told ANSA, "can be dealt with only by not judging them. I tried to see them objectively, understand what makes them tick. These stories do not provide any answers; they simply offer the public the chance to ask themselves questions." photo: Antonioni on set
