Freaks Out

Gabriele Mainetti, Italy, Belgium, 2021, 141'

The announcement delivered in the opening scene by the director of an obscure but wonderful circus performing in Rome during World War II – “You will meet extraordinary creatures, capable of unforgettable and stupefying acts. Nothing is at it seems…” – is a perfect description of this film, a delightful tribute to diversity and a punch in the face to fascism of all forms.

Screening will also be:

5. 6., 15.00, Art Cinema Odeon in Izola
