Sky Arte Opens 2025 with Picasso Documentary

Sky Arte will premiere the documentary 'Picasso – Un ribelle a Parigi' on January 1, 2025, directed by Simona Risi. The film offers an unprecedented portrait of Pablo Picasso's life, focusing on his complex relationship with early 20th-century Paris, where he felt both welcomed and treated as an exile. Iranian actress Mina Kavani guides viewers through Parisian locales and the Musée Picasso. The documentary features visual evocations of Picasso's masks: an opium smoke, a gunshot, a bullfighter dressing in the rain, a Harlequin silhouette, and a Minotaur mask. The script was written by Didi Gnocchi, Sabina Fedeli, and Arianna Marelli.
