Pasolini (2014)
Pasolini 2014
“I know who killed him!” said Abel Ferrara when he had finished his film in which he told Italian journalists about Pasolini's last days. The mystery has not disappeared since Pier Paolo Pasolini was brutally murdered in November 1975 in a corrupt and desolate Italy, where fear and passion reigned. Poet, director, journalist and intellectual Pasolini was one of the best-known and at the same time one of the most controversial figures in the Italian art and political circles. Rumors and suspects arose when he was run over by his own car on a beach near Rome in 1975, but the real killer was neither identified nor punished. In 2005, the case file was reopened after some new evidence came to light. Abel Ferrara tries to shed light on this dark event in his latest film, which deals with the history of politics and cinema together, which premiered in Venice.
