Mario Martone : 2018
It is 1914 and Italy is about to go to war. A commune of young Northern Europeans has found the ideal place for their exploration of life and art on the island of Capri. But the island has its own powerful identity, in the person of a young woman, a goatherd named Lucia. The film tells the story of the encounter between Lucia, the commune led by Seybu and the young village doctor. It also speaks of an island unique in the world, whose Dolomite cliffs plunge into the waters of the Mediterranean, and which at the start of the 20th century acted like a magnet for all those driven by ideals of liberty and progress, such as the Russians whom Maxim Gorky, in exile on Capri, was preparing for the revolution. Mario Martone's feature premiered in competition at Venice International Film Festival 2018.
