Apr. 15 – ” “Black Souls” is the antithesis of a sensationalist splatter movie. There is not an operatic flourish to be seen in a film whose killings are executed with a coldblooded efficiency. This isn’t entertainment; it’s life and death.” Comments the New York Times. “Anime Nere”, a film by Francis Munzi adapted from the bestseller by Gioacchino Criaco – published by Rubbettino in 2008, has arrived in America. The film was released in New York on Friday and will be distributed throughout the country. Finalist at the Venice Film Festival in 2014, nominated as Best Italian Film for the Academy Awards, the film follows the success of the book, composed also of “Zefira” and “American Taste” brings forth a new south that breaks with the traditional fatalistic literature genre, and without hypocrisy shows the face of evil, giving voice to the bad guys, uncomfortably victims and executioners at the same time.
