Cinema Massimo – 21 May 2010, at 8.30 p.m.

The third Biennial Festival of Lay Cinema, organised by the Consulta Torinese per la Laicità delle Istituzioni (Turin committee for Laiety in Institutions) in partnership with the National Museum of Cinema and directed by the film critic Gabriele Barrera, continues with a screening of the film Suddenly Last Winter, introduced by its authors Luca Ragazzi and Gustav Hofer.

This festival aims to offer the people of Turin an approach to lay methods and lay ethics when faced with the problems and challenges, both personal and collective, that the modern world poses, through the aesthetic language and cultural stimuli of cinematic art.

The films shown tackle important contemporary themes of today's ever more multi-cultural, multi-ethnic and multi-religious society. What finally emerges, through different existential situations and incidents, are some aspects of lay ethics which are by definition non-dogmatic and non-absolutist, of freedom and positive tolerance, of respect and dialogue among people who are equal and different, in the framework of a more civil society between individuals and groups of the human community, something that the festivals' organisers keenly hope for. Admission: 4.00 euros.
