22° TORINO FILM FESTIVAL
Italian Competition 2004
Resurrezioni
by François Farellacci, Laura Lamanda
RESURRECTIONS During Easter procession in Trapani, statues, men and
things become alive, separately and together, looking for their own
mystery and resurrection.
"During the last Holy Week we found ourselves in Trapani to check the
location for a documentary on Mysteries, the Good Friday procession.
Back home, the power of the event we filmed, made us breathless. These
images were alive and we could not keep them waiting to be inserted in a
documentary: they asked us to be shown, in a way that would go beyond
documentary or fiction, in their own way" (L. Lamanda, F. Farellacci)
