Elvira Notari: Beyond Silence
Directed by Valerio Ciriaci
Elvira Notari, Guiliana Bruno, Flavia Amabile, Cristina Vatielli, Teresa Saponangelo
Despite directing hundreds of silent films that captivated audiences from Naples to New York, Elvira Notari was relegated to the margins of film history for half a century. A pioneer of Neapolitan cinema, she created over sixty features blending popular culture and unvarnished realism. Silenced by Fascist censorship and the advent of sound, her work slipped into obscurity. Elvira Notari: Beyond Silence traces her legacy and the artists now bringing her vision back to life.
