The most celebrated production from the silent phase in Italian cinema and a very beloved movie by Federico Fellini, Cabiria has been restored by the Torino Museo Nazionale del Cinema, in association with the London PresTech Film Laboratories Ltd., a company with Brazilian João Sócrates for director. The initiative was highly commended, among others, by filmmaker Martin Scorsese. He recollects seeing the film for the first time: "I was not prepared for the uncommon objective and for the beauty of this film. Neither was I prepared to change my own notion of the history of cinema. There are so many elements we regard as American inventions: historic epics as features, cameras in movement, and diffused light. And suddenly, we have all of this in a film made two years before D.W. Griffith?s The Birth of a Nation!"



Scorsese points, for instance, to the impact and plasticity of the scene in which Hannibal?s army crosses the Alps. The American filmmaker also refers to the importance of the invention of the carrello, a predecessor for rails for moving cameras that not only followed the actor, but enriched the notion of space and drama itself. The use of light, both realistic and poetic, and the sumptuous, detailed scenarios were also vital to better convey the historic dimension. Not to mention the extravagant intertitles, by Gabrielle D?Annunzio (1863-1938), remembered among those who appreciate melodrama as the author of the novel The Innocent, adapted by Luchino Visconti, in 1976.



Carthage, in the third century A.D., during the Punic Wars: young Cabiria is to be sacrificed to the god Moloch, but is saved by Roman Fulvio Axilla and his faithful servant Maciste. Many years later, they recognize her as beautiful Elissa, the favorite of Sofonisba, daughter of the King of Carthage and object, also, of the attentions of the High Priest Kharthalo. The destruction of Carthage by the Roman army seals the love between Fulvio and Cabiria. Mostra will show two versions of the silent epic. The version with a soundtrack applied on the film itself of 112 minutes. The complete version of 195 minutes will be accompanied on the piano by Stefano Maccagno, accomplished in jazz and in instrumentation.



MUSICAL ACCOMPANIMENT



With an extensive curriculum in sound accompaniment, as for instance, at the Bolonha Il Cinema Ritrovato international festival from 1993 until 1998, he also collaborated with the Cineteca Nazionale Italiana, directed by Gianni Comencini until his death in 2005. He wrote the soundtrack for films such as, Due Dollari Chilo, by Paolo Lipari and is the official pianist for the Torino Museo Nazionale del Cinema where he has, for instance, provided the musical background for Wilhelm Friedrich Murnau?s Nosferatu.

GIOVANNI PASTRONE

Born in 1883, in Montechiaro d´Asti and died in 1959, in Torino, Italy. A pioneer in Italian cinema, in 1908, he founded and directed Itala Film producers. An enthusiast of the new media, he did just about everything in cinema: he wrote scripts, designed the scenario and costumes, launched actors and, above all, researched techniques to perfect clothing in editing film. With him, Italian cinema attained a period of splendor, culminating with Cabiria. The many films he directed, also, under the pseudonym Piero Fosco, include La Caduta di Troia (1910), Padre (1912), Il Fuoco (1915), Tigre Reale (1917), and Hedda Gabler (1919). He discovered and launched actors who later became famous such as Bartolomeu Pagano (who plays Maciste in Cabiria), and Pina Menichelli.
