MAXXI Auditorium – free admittance until full capacity
From 17 to 27 October the Festa del Cinema di Roma is back in town with a programme full of previews, homages, retrospectives, screenings and so much more! Once again this year the Festa’s ticket or accreditation allows you to enter the Musem at the reduced price of € 9.
Italy, 1512. Michelangelo is involved in two major projects: he has just finished painting the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel and is now working on the tomb of Pope Julius II. When the pope dies suddenly and the Medici take charge of the Vatican, he is now embroiled in the violent, drawn-out conflict between Italy’s two most powerful families. Pressured by his
patrons and plagued by visions he can’t distinguish from reality, Michelangelo is forced to lie and scheme so he can keep both commissions.
Backstage by Andrea De Fusco, 35′
Russia, Italy, 2019, 133′
Director Andrei Konchalovsky
Cast Alberto Testone, Jakob Diehl, Francesco Gaudiello, Orso Maria Guerrini, Massimo De Francovich
