Berlinale 2023, il programma: titoli, film italiani, giuria

 

La Berlinale torna con l’edizione numero 73, dal 16 al 26 febbraio. Nella varie location sparse per Berlino, si snoda un programma che comprende anche alcuni titoli italiani: il film in concorso Disco Boy, il documentario di Mario Martone dedicato a Massimo Troisi e il nuovo film con Pierfrancesco Favino, L’ultima notte di Amore. Ad aprire il festival diretto da Carlo Chatrian, la rom com di Rebecca Miller She Came to Me (Peter Dinklage, Marisa Tomei e Anne Hathaway nel cast).

Sempre per l’Italia, il doc Le mura di Bergamo racconta la pandemia mentre la serie The Good Mothers offre uno sguardo inedito sulla ‘ndrangheta. In concorso c’è tra l’altro il gotha del cinema tedesco (Petzold, Von Trotta), mentre tra i film più attesi figurano il biopic Golda sulla Meir con Helen Mirren e il documentario di Sean Penn Superpower, sulla guerra in Ucraina. A giudicare i film in concorso, la giuria guidata dall’attrice Kristen Stewart.
