Presentation at the Events Room in the “Mario Gromo” Library/Mediatheque of Paolo Grassini’s book Fellini 8 ½ La genesi del film (Fellini 8 ½ The film’s genesis), ETS Editions 2015.

The book aims to shed light on key issues revolving around Fellini’s masterpiece: what drove the filmmaker to shoot 8½? In what context and in what circumstances did Fellini find himself working?
