VolaVola is a choral story that tells various facets of contemporary lifestyles, comparing feelings and world views of three different generations. The underlying assumption of the film is that the use of certain media, affects the definition of needs and aspirations of choice, for those who benefit. Although it is a drama, VolaVola exudes confidence for the future. The story clearly shows the hope that we are living the last days of a long winter, and that the value system on which the Internet generation is founded will help make the world a better place. Although it will be starring avatars, VolaVola is a visceral film about human beings, an invitation to be alive and alert, to always have your own and new vision about things. The atmosphere will be syncopated, hyper-realistic, slightly surreal, not minimalistic, very hard and always suspended. From a strictly linguistic point of view, it will attempt to unite, in a dense but free way, shooting techniques and styles of its various media together in the belief that the shift from remediation to visual mash up is an important formalization of the need to regenerate the film practice. By shifting the emphasis of one's action from the mere metalinguistic reflection, to a vocabulary reutilization, we can pursue a deeper interaction with reality.

Rome in the 1970's, a city given to the mafia from the complacent politicians. If not colluded, the city becomes a theatre of business scandal, managed by hidden, criminal powers, in to which a man from the cupola of Cosa Nostra, Pippo Calò;, arrives. He has the ability to increase the mafia activity hundredfold in very little time through a new criminal organisation, called Banda della Magliana. One look, however, can interrupt the plans of economic extortion, and this comes from Mino Pecorelli, a journalist from the tabloid OP, who seems to have on hand material that will scupper the mafia's projects. Through new field research and unpublished interviews, Pecorelli's critical voice seems to be interrupted by the boys that, at this time, rule the districts of Testaccio and Trastevere in Rome. OP - Osservato Particolare is an investigative film that wants to expose the underworld, in which the turbid power of criminality moved, and in which the murder of Pecorelli matured. Starting with the sentences of the pleads that also involved Senator for life Giulio Andreotti, this film disentangles the thousands of pleads until it reaches a never beaten path made up of cheques, loans, and money laundering. This is an inquiry which re-writes the pages of Italian Crime.

The documentary "Lazio, a 0 Km region" deals with the benefits of a possible adhesion of the region to the 0 km initiative and with the wide possibilities that this idea of market can meet the habits of the contemporary society. The big distribution productions are compared to the short supply chain situation and witnesses testify a conflict approach: who loves quality, who doesn't care, who just wants to save. We tell how, in a changing and economically challenged era, consumptions are affected and consumers pay more attention on them, but it is possible to discover the true commercial strength of the "near" products and the human value behind them, which allow a development based on a better awareness of Lazio culture and cultivation, a green sustainability and a natural freshness of the products.

This is a documentary based on the music of the Gypsy community. Music can be described as a 'lens', through which, you can see straight to the heart of the community. The documentary is a result of the authors (Louis Siciliano, Composer & Musician and Guido Farinella, Director) admiration of tradition, friendship, love, freedom and most of all music. The Gypsy community is based around these five beliefs and this somewhat misunderstood community has very strong traditions which are still present to this day. The importance of friendship and love is what keeps these communities strong and together along with a thirst for exploration to pursue the concept of freedom. The mentality and unity of the Gypsy community can be best heard through the unique style of music they love so dearly.
