Egidio Eronico's 'Amate Sponde' Premieres for Italian Landscape Day

For the National Landscape Day, Luce Cinecittà releases Egidio Eronico's documentary 'Amate Sponde' in Italian cinemas from March 14. The film is a wordless journey across Italy, from the Alps to Sicily, exploring urban and rural environments, labor, new gathering places, and collective rituals. Structured like a Bach suite, it uses only images and music, with cinematography by Sara Purgatorio and a score by Vittorio Cosma. Eronico aims to make viewers 'see the music and hear the images,' following Sergei Eisenstein's theories. The documentary portrays Italy as a country of contradictions, marked by inequalities yet driven by innovation, suspended between past and present in search of sustainable development. Eronico's previous works include 'A proposito di Roma,' 'L'amico magico' on Nino Rota, 'Michel Petrucciani Body and Soul Tribute,' and 'Nessuno mi troverà' on Ettore Majorana's disappearance.
