The need to sublimate the familiar and ordinary in everyday life is a sentiment that underlies Francesca Archibugi's work. This 42-year-old filmmaker from Rome has received unanimous critical acclaim and awards for her several films: Mignon è partita (Mignon Has Left), 1988; Verso sera (By Nightfall), 1989; Il grande cocomero (The Great Pumpkin), 1993; Con gli occhi chiusi (With Closed Eyes), 1994; L'albero delle pere (Shooting the Moon), 1998; Domani (Tomorrow), 2000. Archibugi explores friendship, love affairs and family relationships in the life stories of people of her own generation and the next. Inspired by François Truffaut's films about children, Archibugi has brought to life a polyhedral human universe. She casts her poetic gaze upon a mosaic of the smallest emotions, and examines the most diverse private worlds. She has an honest talent, and, while hovering between comedy and civic commitment, she offers audiences carefully orchestrated films dealing with a spectrum of sociological issues relating to the new Italian familyscape. |
