Open Roads: New Italian Cinema 2018
May 31 - June 6, 2018
A priest (Mimmo Borelli) transfers to the north of Naples and finds himself in conflict with the Camorra in this scrappy, moving drama about the antagonism between religious belief and the modern world.
Q&A with Vincenzo Marra on June 3
The director of Vento di terra returns to Open Roads with this realist parable about faith and crime in Campania. After Roman priest Don Giuseppe (Mimmo Borrelli) begins developing an attraction to an employee of the refugee center where he works, he requests a transfer, settling just north of Naples. There, he finds himself in conflict with the Camorra when he tries to intervene in the local industrial-waste crisis, their nefarious tactics putting the priest’s spiritual resolve to the test. Working with a mix of professionals and non-actors, Marra renders a scrappy, moving drama about the antagonism between religious belief and the modern world.
