Elvis and Marilyn
Cinematography
The film chronicles the melancholy journey of two celebrity look-alikes chasing their dream of la dolce vita in Italy. Romanian Marilyn Monroe impersonator Ileana and Bulgarian Elvis double Nicolaj win a look-alike contest in Bucharest in which the prize is a summer engagement in a nightclub on Italy's Adriatic coast. The two strangers take off together, communicating in the broken Italian they picked up from TV. When a bureaucratic hitch with Ileana's passport cuts them off at the airport, they cross the border illegally by car, travelling through a part of Yugoslavia devastated by war. They accept hospitality at a military outpost, but the suicide of a colonel there casts suspicion on Ileana. Beaten and afraid, they continue their odyssey across the harsh sunless no-man's-land gradually scarring them both and clouding their hopes. They finally reach Italy, but all is not as promised.

Собор

Средние века. Тевтонские рыцари уничтожают деревню и убивают всех ее жителей, считающихся ведьмами и колдунами. Чтобы зло не могло распространиться по земле, рыцари хоронят их останки в огромном готическом соборе… Наши дни. В церковь прибывает новый библиотекарь Эван, где знакомится с девушкой Лизой, проводящей реставрационные работы. Вскоре они обнаруживают древний пергамент, в котором написано, что в подземелье существует неизвестное захоронение. Естественно, они ломают фундамент церкви и зло, хранившееся в подземелье несколько веков, вырывается наружу. Тела невинно убиенных людей поднимаются из могилы, и начинается кровавая эпопея.

Apollon: una fabbrica occupata
Director of Photography
The film documents the trade union battle of the workers of the Apollon printing house in Rome, occupied for a few months after the management decided to fire all the personnel and sell the land on which the factory was standing. In the form of a docu-fiction, the events of the long occupation are reconstructed, which began on June 4, 1967 and ended in December 1968. The workers play themselves and various other roles, but they are also co-authors of the film, which is not a simple chronicle of events, but an analytical reading of the reality of the factory, the story of the conquest of instruments of struggle and democracy, with the indication of strategies of attack on the bosses' power. The narrative voice of Gian Maria Volonté gives continuity to the story and comments on the events.
