Letters to my daughter. Manuale sull'alzheimer by Giuseppe Alessio Nuzzo Italy - 52' The director has observed for five years this disease that he has seen up close for so long but never wanted to know about. The result is a true manual, divided into four chapters, in which interviews with researchers, scholars, doctors, institutions but also operators and patients alternate with the faithful fictional reconstruction whose face is that of actor Leo Gullotta.
2/12 at 8.30 p.m. Vittorio, Capitan Pistone e tutti gli altri by Mara Consoli Italy - 55' Vittorio, the protagonist of the documentary, is an unknown person, but he has something in common with Ronald Reagan, Rita Hayworth, Winston Churchill, Charles Bronson, Annie Girardot and 20 million other people. Vittorio, in fact, is suffering from Alzheimer's and this documentary is a travelogue: back and forth in time, beyond words, between denunciation and poetry, to the essence of things. A journey to discover that Italy 'is not a country for old people'.
