    So creative!

    FUIME O MORTE! goes beyond film, serving as a performance and exploration of the interplay between history and the present.

    It grants citizens the power to reinterpret history, reminding us that the past is not distant and that the specter of fascism still lingers in the world.

    BFI LFF #3

    Probably the most personal film of Paolo Sorrentino, which reminds me of Fellini’s “Amarcord.” It’s a revisit to his traumatic childhood in the late 80s in Napoli. He lost his family, but he found what he wants to do for the rest of his life - a film director.


    My favourite of LFF 2021.

    Berlinale 2021 #7

    Whatever one may say, such things do happen rarely - but they do.

    Through the magic of the cinematic language, it’s a imaginative fairy tale for adults and a lovely love poem that celebrates the relationship, the fate and the boring but shining daily life.

    The best so far!
