(2006 Italy, by Alessandro Taiana and Maurizio Radice, color 12 mins)

For shows the latest series of works by the painter Beppe Devalle, great allegorical machines dealing with the issue of suicide of the protagonists as the price paid to consciously assert their creative identity.

The characters are writers, artists, politicians and actors who played the roles and figures of the tragedy of our time. Rapid sequences alternate faces, bodies, gestures and looks a moment before death will seize them.
