For two decades, New York City cinephiles had access to a treasure trove of rare and esoteric films through Kim's Video. Originally run by the enigmatic Yongman Kim out of his dry-cleaning business, his franchise eventually amassed 55,000 rental titles. In 2008, facing a changing industry, Mr. Kim offered to give away his collection provided that it stay intact and be available to Kim's Video members. In a bid to revitalize tourism, the small Italian village of Salemi, Sicily became home to the archive. But after the initial publicity faded, so too did any sign of the collection. Enter filmmaker David Redmon, who credits Kim's Video for his film education. With the ghosts of cinema past leading his way, Redmon embarks on a seemingly quixotic quest to track down what happened to the legendary collection and to free it from purgatory.

It has been almost thirty years since Filippo Dobrilla started to sculpt a giant male nude inside a cave 650 metres deep in the Apuan Alps. This almost inaccessible place has jealously protected his secret: his youthful passion for a fellow climber, a passion Filippo was only able to indulge in here in the intimacy of this cave. Even after it was over and ever since then, Filippo has been returning regularly to the cave to work on the most important sculpture of his life, a masterpiece no one will see.

A film-journey into the art of Wolfango, born in Bologna in 1926, "the greatest living Italian painter", as Eugenio Riccomini defined him, who first, in 1986, convinced him to exhibit his works. "Painting enters inside and speaks to the world; indeed, it speaks to the world". His production is based on this assumption, extraneous to contemporary artistic currents. The film is also a passionate chorus of those who have known and appreciated it in the last thirty years.

This film tells the story of three defeats: Berlusconi’s political and human defeat in his “twilight”, the one of Ciccio Mirra, Berlusconi’s unconditional supporter, deeply rooted in an ancient culture that dies hard, and the director’s artistic defeat in an Italy that recognised itself in this “Berlusconian culture” for a long time, and probably still does.

Based upon Vincenzoni's biography, "Pane e cinema", the documentary traces the story of the screen play writer who invented many stories that became blockbusters throughout the world.

평범한 소시민으로 살아가는 야간 경비원 프랑크(Franck: 패트릭 팀싯 분)는 우연히 축구 경기 관람을 갔다가 파파라치의 사진에 찍혀 가쉽 전문 잡지의 표지에 실린다. 바로 그의 뒷 자석에서 유명한 TV 스타가 누군가와 키스를 하고 있었기 때문이다. 이 일로 프랑크는 근무시간 중 축구 경기장에 간 것이 들통나 직장에서 해고당한다. 억울한 마음에 프랑크는 당장 사진을 실은 잡지사를 찾아가고, 자신을 찍었음이 분명한 문제의 파파라치 R. R이 나타나기를 요구한다. 그 와중에 프랑크는 그 잡지사와 일하는 당대 최고의 파파라치 미셀(Michel: 빈센트 린던 분)을 만나고, 얼떨결에 그의 일을 도우면서 파파라치 세계에 발을 들여놓게 된다.

The formation, the political rise and the fall. Following a chronological order and using exclusive and unpublished materials, the documentary traces a portrait of Bettino Craxi, one of the most influent Italian politicians.
