GIANFRANCO ROSI

Director

Italian documentary film director known for Sacro GRA and Fuocoammare. Sacro GRA won the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival (2013).

Reviews highlight Rosi's distant yet personal gaze on lives at the margins, his use of non-actors and documentary techniques, and divided reactions to pacing and the depiction of death and immigration.

Reviews praise Rosi's original, distant yet personal gaze on marginal lives and note his authenticity as a documentarian. Critics find Sacro GRA original but slow; Fuocoammare is commended for restraint but disputed for graphic depictions of death. Overall reactions are admiring of style yet ambivalent about impact.

For:Fans of documentary cinema; Italian cinema enthusiasts; film critics and students

 But to consider Fuocoammare as a political work would be the gravest of mistakes.
