A 110 min. creative documentary chosen for the 60th Venice Biennale on the past and present of a corner of the world, a work dealing with images sunk between memory and reality.
The creative documentary ‘Scalamara’ tells of the dream of a man of 71 who is still looking for his mother who abandoned him as a child and who has become over the course of his difficult life an unattainable chimera.
The perseverance, excess and suffering in the life and works of the explorer, filmmaker and photographer Alberto Maria De Agostini (1883-1960) arbitrarily reinvented.
