              A film based on the Neapolitan cult of dead. It is said that these dead people call out in dreams, and sometimes appear in a crowd: the stranger who is staring at you. They want to be acknowledged. So you adopt a skull, one of the thousands of human remains that can be found below the city. This ancient cult that has been practised until recently has left traces, traditions and beliefs.

              An Italian documentary that looks at how television manipulates and exploits women's bodies. It all started with the observation that women – real women – are an endangered species on television, one that is being replaced by a grotesque, vulgar and humiliating representation. This is an enormous loss: the erasure of womens' identity is happening right before our eyes, but there is no outcry, even from women themselves. This led to the idea of compiling TV images that share a common manipulative exploitation of womens' bodies, to let people know what is happening – not only people who never watch television, but especially those who watch it but “don't see.” The aim is to pose questions about the reason behind this erasure, a real “pogrom” of which all of us are silent spectators. The project pays special attention to the erasure of adult faces on television, to the use of plastic surgery to erase any sign of the passage of time, and to the social consequences of this erasure.

              There can be no witnesses to this war. There can be no witnesses because it is based on lies. The only journalists that the Americans allow in Fallujah are embedded with their troops. In spite of this, images such as the one of a marine shooting a wounded, unarmed fighter inside the Mosque at Fallujah have been beamed out to the world. And precisely because these images have gone out, although nobody knows how, and circulated all over the world, the NBC journalist that captured them was immediately expelled from the ranks of embedded journalists. Fallujah, The Hidden Massacre is a documentary by Sigfrido Ranucci and Maurizio Torrealta which first aired on Italy's RAI state television network on November 8, 2005. It testifies to the use of weapons that the film claims are chemical weapons, in particular incendiary bombs, and alleges indiscriminate use of violence against civilians and children by United States of America military forces in the city of Fallujah in Iraq during the November 2004 Fallujah Offensive.

              Why do Italians vote Berlusconi? The violence of propaganda, the impotence of citizens, questions of the economy, illicit power relationships... And a catastrophe: the city of L'Aquila devastated by an earthquake... all these elements come together to show how the young Italian democracy has been subdued.
