Un’altro regalo ai Soci dell’Altra Italia !!! I primi sei che risponderanno, avranno la possibilita’ di ricevere un biglietto omaggio per la visione in antepima del Film ” Cosmonauta ” __________________________
Selected for the “New Trends in Italian Cinema” section at the 2009 Venice Film Festival. WHEN SHE WAS 9, SHE ATTEMPTED TO FLEE HER FIRST COMMUNION IN A PRECOCIOUS EFFORT TO REJECT THE CATHOLIC OPIATE OF THE PEOPLE…NOW IT’S 1963, AND 15-YEAR-OLD LUCIANA IS ON HER OWN SORT OF SPACE RACE. As capitalist America and communist Russia compete for ideological pre-eminence through conquest of the heavens, Luciana grows up an Italian female communist, struggling to affirm her identity amidst a bourgeois family, chauvinism, and… oh god…. teenage lust. The Soviet Union’s technological victory with Sputnik 1 launched an incredible propaganda victory, whereupon the Italian daily L’Unita ran the headline “Socialist technology defies the force of gravity”. filmswelike presents COSMONAUT
