#BiennaleCinema2026 | Day by Day 8 Se dovessimo trovare un elemento capace di unire tutti i film proiettati ieri a #Venezia83, la risposta potrebbe essere: “storie di individui che si confrontano con forze potenti e ben oltre il loro controllo”. In UNION TOWN di Barbara Kopple assistiamo a persone che si uniscono per opporsi al capitalismo; DAU di Ilya Khrzhanovsky racconta di uno scienziato (Lev Landau) che cerca di resistere alle pressioni esercitate dal sistema; Un BON PETIT SOLDAT di Stéphane Brizé parla della difficoltà di mantenere un’etica in una società ossessionata dalla performance. E nel caso di IL FUOCO CHE TI PORTI DENTRO di Edoardo De Angelis, la potente forza impossibile da controllare è… una mamma più che esuberante!

In Barbara Kopple’s UNION TOWN we witness individuals coming together to go against capitalism; Ilya Khrzhanovskiy’s DAU follows a scientist (Lev Landau) who is trying to resist the pressure exerted by the system; Stéphane Brizé’s A GOOD LITTLE SOLDIER is all about maintaining an ethical stance in a society focused solely on overperformance. And in Edoardo De Angelis’ THE FIRE WITHIN YOU, the powerful force far beyond control is… well, a mum!
