Fellini celebrated on the Day of Italian Cinema in the World
Since 2020, as part of the Fare Cinema week, the Day of Italian Cinema in the World is also celebrated, and this year it will be on Saturday 20 June.
On the occasion, the masterclass The Pleasure of Hindsight: An Overview of Fellini’s Cinema and Significance by Frank Burke, Professor Emeritus at Queen’s University Department of Film and Media, Canada, is presented. It has been created exclusively for Fare Cinema in collaboration with Cineteca di Rimini and Emilia-Romagna Region, and is available on YouTube.
Professor Burke is one of the top experts on Fellini’s work, and besides the many volumes and essays dedicated to the director, he has recently edited A Companion to Federico Fellini, a ground-breaking anthology curated together with Marguerite Waller and Marita Gubareva (March 2020) and Fellini’s Films and Commercials: Postwar to Postmoder (April 2020).
His masterclass develops in four chapters an approach path toward the poetic universe of the most mentioned, imitated and awarded director of world cinema. A further tribute to the genius of Fellini in the year of the Centenary of his birth.
