Debut pieces, pieces confirming the talent of their directors, the history of cinema: this is what lies in store at ESCO (allo scoperto), the cinema event organised by Andrea Inzerillo with Cultural Association SudTitles, which will kick off on 24 August at the Complesso Monumentale dello Spasimo di Palermo and close on 6 September with a tribute to Mario Monicelli and the screening of one of his best films, The Passionate Thief, starring Totò, Anna Magnani and Ben Gazzara.
Over the 14 days of the event, organised with the support of SIAE, screenings will be held of films recently produced in Italy. As at the beginning of the century in the first film theatres, the feature films will be introduced this year by the short films produced by Panaria Film.
The event will open with the screening of the debut feature film of Sergio Misuraca, Fuori dal coro [+see also:
