Casa Antonietta

FEATURE FILM – 1977 / REWORK – 2019
Una giornata particolare

A rework of one of the sets for Ettore Scola’s Una giornata particolare, Antonietta’s house. The story takes place in 1938, in a working-class building of the time. I’ve decided to take a bold approach and move the set from the North of Rome to the South, to a different working class district, the Garbatella neighborhood. Also because many politcal dissident were confined there during the Fascist period, and the other main character, Gabriele, is exactly that. Since Garbatella was more proletarian then the original location, the interiors and exteriors of the set should have had a different feel, more poor, but also more warm and welcoming.
