At Giunti Odeon the film that won 5 awards at the Oscars (including Best Movie) and the Golden Palm at the Cannes Film Festival. Anora, known as Ani, is an American erotic dancer of Russian origin, an expert in lap dances, who takes clients to private rooms offering them extra services for a fee. One day at the club where she works Ivan arrives, a Russian boy who seems enthusiastic about her and her many talents. The next day Ivan invites her to his house, and Ani discovers that the boy lives in a megavilla and is the only son of a multi-billionaire oligarch. Things go so well between the two boys that Ivan takes Ani to Las Vegas and there asks her to marry him. But his parents don't agree at all, and send a small ‘intervention team’ to retrieve their misguided son. What follows is a rousing adventure full of surprises, which nevertheless does not forget to have a heart and an eye for reality even within comic exaggeration. The film is forbidden to minors under the age of 14.

More than forty years after its first release, Amadeus, Milos Forman's masterpiece and winner of no fewer than eight Academy Awards, returns to the big screen at Giunti Odeon in an incredible 4K restored version, ready to captivate audiences once again and take them back to the heart of an extraordinary musical era, 18th century Vienna.

In the Vienna of Joseph II, son of Maria Theresa of Austria, comes Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. He is introduced by Salieri, a court musician, respected and appreciated everywhere. Within a short time Mozart's immense talent arouses great enthusiasm, but also enmity and jealousy. Salieri, who knows the limits of his musical professionalism, thus begins to harbour a genuine hatred towards him. He admires his art but deplores his insolent behaviour and foul language. But Mozart also seems to triumph in the Sovereign's soul, while Salieri, consumed with envy, swears to himself that he will not rest until he sees his rival dead. Despite his great successes, Mozart at the end of his short life finds himself poor and abandoned by his wife Constance. He agrees to compose a Requiem, which he dictates to Salieri himself because he is too ill. All this is narrated by Salieri himself locked in a chronicarium, now old and restless.

At Giunti Odeon the film that won the Oscar for Best Documentary. No Other Land, made by a Palestinian-Israeli collective of four young activists, was co-created during the region's darkest times as an act of creative resistance to apartheid and a search for a path to equality and justice. Basel Adra, a young Palestinian activist from Masafer Yatta, has been fighting since childhood against the mass expulsion of his community by the Israeli occupation. Basel documents the gradual erasure of Masafer Yatta as soldiers destroy families' homes, the largest single act of forced relocation ever carried out in the occupied West Bank. She meets Yuval, an Israeli journalist who joins her struggle, and for over half a decade they fight against the expulsion, growing closer and closer. Their complex bond, however, is affected by the extreme inequality between their living conditions: Basel, who lives under brutal military occupation, and Yuval, unrestricted and free to move around.

Almost fifty years after its theatrical release, Martin Scorsese's masterpiece starring Robert De Niro, Taxi Driver, returns to the big screen at Giunti Odeon in an extraordinary 4K restored version (in Italian), to relive the great visual and narrative power of a film that has forever marked the history of cinema. Taxi Driver recounts the descent into madness of Travis Bickle, a former marine and night taxi driver, alienated from a corrupt and violent New York. Between insomnia, loneliness and a growing obsession with violence, Travis falls into a spiral of madness that leads him to plan an extreme act. Featuring Paul Schrader as screenplay and accompanied by Bernard Herrmann's score, the film explores themes of alienation, violence and redemption in a dark and suffocating metropolis. A Palme d'Or winner at the Cannes Film Festival, Taxi Driver has become a cultural icon thanks to Scorsese's visionary direction and the extraordinary performance of Robert De Niro, flanked by a very young Jodie Foster and Harvey Keitel. This 4K restored edition offers an unprecedented visual and sound experience, allowing audiences to rediscover every detail of a film that defined an era.

At Giunti Odeon, the highly anticipated new film by Ron Howard, with a stellar cast (Jude Law, Ana de Armas, Vanessa Kirby): Eden. Dr Friedrich Ritter and his wife Dora Strauch are two idealistic Europeans who flee Germany in 1929, disavowing the bourgeois values they believe are destroying the true nature of humanity, to move to the uninhabited island of Floreana in the Galápagos archipelago. However, their sought-after solitude is short-lived. They are joined first by Margaret and Heinz Wittmer, serious and capable settlers, and later by Baroness Eloise Bosquet de Wagner Wehrhorn followed by her two lovers, an Ecuadorian servant and a plan to open a luxury hotel on the island. Bad weather, wildlife and a total lack of comfort and civilisation make their coexistence very problematic, but the greatest challenge will be to coexist with neighbours who are desperate and ready to do anything to assert themselves.

On the big screen of Giunti Odeon arrives one of the most eagerly awaited films of the year: Queer, directed by Luca Guadagnino with Daniel Craig, adapted from the novel of the same name by William S. Burroughs and already in competition at the last Venice Film Festival, is set in 1950. William Lee is an American in his forties expatriate in Mexico City. He spends his days almost entirely alone, apart from his few relationships with other members of the small American community. His encounter with Eugene Allerton, a young student who has just arrived in the city, deludes him for the first time of the possibility of finally establishing an intimate connection with someone.
