OPEN ROADS: NEW ITALIAN CINEMA, May 30- June 6, 2024

[Chris Knipp]

ENEO (Pietro Castellitto 2023)

Sophomore film written, directed, and starring the son of famous actor-director Sergio Castellitto and included in competition at the Venice festival last year where his THE PREDATORS debut won a screenplay award a few years ago. It's about privileged young Romans who get involved in a dangerous drug deal just out of boredom. Flashy technique and ambitious set pieces make the film watchable. Again as in ADAGIO it's set in a Rome deovid of the usual landmarks. Included in this year's Open Roads series in Walter Reade Theater at Lincoln Center.
