Barbara Mastroianni

A documentary about Marcello Mastroianni.

After shooting to fame with Federico Fellini’s “La Dolce Vita” (1960), actor Marcello Mastroianni (1924-1996) starred in more than 160 films in his nearly half-a-century career. Directors Mario Canale and Annarosa Morri look into the melancholic charm of one of the most famous Italian actors through interviews with his two daughters, Barbara and Chiara; directors Fellini and Luchino Visconti; actresses Claudia Cardinale and Anouk Aimee; and in archival footage of Mastroianni himself. The subject matter ranges from Mastroianni’s passion for kidney-bean pasta and his addiction to the telephone to his famous laziness, humility and talent. Shown in black-and-white, Mastroianni — elegantly holding a cigarette in between his fingers — is undeniably the dandy.

Em 1914, um navio de cruzeiro sai navegando de Nápoles com o objetivo de espalhar as cinzas da amada cantora de ópera Edmea Tetua perto da ilha de Erimo, local de nascimento da cantora. Durante a viagem, a variedade eclética de passageiros descobre um grupo de refugiados sérvios a bordo do navio. A paz e a camaradagem reina até que o navio é abordado por uma nau capitânia austríaca. Os sérvios são obrigados a abandoná-lo, mas, naturalmente, eles resistem, iniciando uma escaramuça que acaba em destruição.
