other · 2026-04-26

On December 25, Sky Arte will premiere 'Natale fuori orario – Vinicio Capossela', a film-concert directed by Gianfranco Firriolo. The film follows three misfit 'randagi'—a singer, a giant, and a magician forming a 'trinity'—as they celebrate Christmas in a dystopian 2047, traveling in an old car equipped with a cryogenic capsule. It blends Capossela's characteristic imagery, live performances recorded over the years, virtual reality nostalgia, and a message of hope and friendship. The film is produced by Sky Arte, with content curated by Artribune.
