Anora - Oscar Award for Best Movie and Golden Palm Winner (original version with Italian subtitles)

Director : Sean Baker

Cast : Karren Karagulian, Mikey Madison, Vache Tovmasyan

Durata : 02:19

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.

Amadeus 4K (restored original version with Italian subtitles)

Director : MILOS FORMAN

Cast : Elizabeth Berridge, F. Murray Abraham, Roy Dotrice, Simon Callow, Tom Hulce

Durata : 02:40

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.

No Other Land - Oscar Best Documentary (original Arab version with Italian subtitles)

Director : Basel Adra, Hamdan Ballal, Yuval Abraham, Rachel Szor

Cast :

Durata : 01:36

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.

The ‘Pinocchio’ exhibition curated by Fabio De Poli

To coincide with the opening of the Pinocchio Museum (Via Ricasoli, Florence), the 'Pinocchio' exhibition curated by Fabio De Poli can be visited on the first floor of Giunti Odeon. ‘Fabio De Poli declares, at the beginning, his prejudiced and obstinate dislike for Pinocchio and pinocchios. Except that he then ‘repented’ and recreated, fascinated by paper, colour, scissors, and the ‘poor’ materials of a skilful painting, a kind of tale by silhouettes, where the memory of Mazzanti, but also of Mattioli, is pushed forward, and transforms each character into a coloured cutout, as in a game of children who have learnt, and well, the lesson of Matisse. De Poli stands at the extreme edge of contact between the illustration of the book and the painting of the work. His work is both. (...) De Poli's most significant plates are however those where Pinocchio takes revenge on the artist's declared antipathy and occupies space in a total manner, with his edges, his lines, his dynamic twists, dividing the collage space with them, becoming shadow and backlight, optical effect and material and tactile reality.’ (Valentino Baldacci and Andrea Rauch, Pinocchio e la sua immagine, Giunti 2006, p.44).
