Salt of the Earth (1954)
Directed by Herbert J. Biberman

Based on an actual strike against the Empire Zinc Mine in New Mexico, the film deals with the prejudice against the Mexican-American workers, who struck to attain wage parity with Anglo workers in other mines and to be treated with dignity by the bosses. The film is an early treatment of feminism, because the wives of the miners play a pivotal role in the strike, against their husbands wishes. In the end, the greatest victory for the workers and their families is the realization that prejudice and poor treatment are conditions that are not always imposed by outside forces. This film was written, directed and produced by members of the original "Hollywood Ten," who were blacklisted for refusing to answer Congressional inquiries on First Amendment grounds.

Rivers And Tides (2001)

An outstanding documentary film detailing the work of British artist Andy Goldsworthy, sculptor, photographer, and creator of fanciful, ephemeral works. His astonishing and fleeting works of art are brought to the screen in the singular hour of their birth and sometimes disintegration. Although Goldsworthy also creates more durable works, the film focuses on the delicate, the fragile, the transient. Exclusively using the raw materials provided by nature: water, ice, flower blossoms, stones, twigs, icicles, leaves, even snowflakes, and often created in their indigenous places, Goldsworthy's pieces transform rigid elements into fluid ones and vice versa, reworking pliant substances into dense, solid forms. In others, he extracts one essential element, as in an ode to pure color created by meticulously pounding into powder chips of rock containing veins of iron. Re-introducing the powder into a clear rippling stream results in an astonishing sculpture-in-motion, not coincidentally, the deep red color of blood. From a beach strewn with an unyielding scatter of stones, comes a transformation into a liquid river of granite.

DellaMorte DellAmore (1994)

This movie is based on a novel of Tiziano Sclavi, and it always reflects the “sclavian philosophy” diffused by the most succesful comics in Italy: Dylan Dog, the detective of the nightmare. There is the duality between love and death (in Italian “dellamore” means “of love” and “dellamorte” means “of death”), a duality that Dellamorte feels in a really hard way. He is the guardian of the cemetery of Buffalora, a little town in the north of Italy, in which, we don’t know why, corpses rise from tombs and Dellamorte has to destroy them. Dellamorte seems not to ask to himself why this happens, he shoots and loves. But at the end he wants to leave Buffalora...
