Giocosa-Mente

Mimmo Paladino
Italia, 2007 / 11’

Conceived to celebrate the hundred years from the birth of the eclectic artist Bruno Munari, GiocosaMente is an animated film whose drawings are by Mimmo Paladino. It’s a sort of divertissement d’auteur in which Mimmo Paladino’s game weaves together with Bruno Munari’s creations in order to present the master’s objects, aggregating and reinventing them as actors of a theatre of memory which is deeply contemporary, with the background of the beautiful original music by Riccardo Veno. The voice of Ginestra Paladino interprets a poem by Munari himself, while the animations are by Riccardo Suriano, directed and edited by Massimiliano Pacifico.
