Film Commission Torino Piemonte

We want to teli the story of one of the most important open-air museums in the world, the Non-Catholic Cemetery of Rome (also known as the English Cemetery or Protestant Cemetery) through the cats that are the undisputed protagonists of the piace: they inhabit it, they "watch over" it, they attend funeral ceremonies, they "console" the relatives of the deceased, they act as a silent bridge between the earthly and the celestial. They are true witnesses of eternity. In our film the cats are at the center and the humans discover them from different perspectives: the director of the Cemetery, the head of the feline colony, the photographer who returns to visit it after 30 years. We want to develop the idea of syncretism that is at the center of this Cemetery and that is superbly interpreted by the "wisdom" of cats. We intend to work on the sensuality, beauty and metaphysics of the piace, proposing a refined entertainment that reveals a unique reality, "planted" in the middle of the city of Rome.
