In this personal journey into the cinema of Massimo Troisi (1953-1994), acclaimed director Mario Martone explores the life and career of the great actor and director.
Assembling scenes from Troisi’s films, Martone outlines the artistic curve spanning his career, framing him within the climate of the time in which he worked, and the magical city common to both directors, Naples.
Intertwined with this collection of memorable film scenes are frank conversations with artists whose careers were influenced by Troisi, including Francesco Piccolo, Paolo Sorrentino, Ficarra and Picone, and critics who wrote about him like Goffredo Fofi, and two of the makers of his posthumous work The Postman (1994), Michael Radford and Roberto Perpignani.
Writer Anna Pavignano, Troisi’s partner in life and career, as co-writer on his films, also provides a first-hand account of his creative process and shares precious unpublished archival materials, revealing how Troisi’s ideas came to life.
