Christian Reiner - Pier Paolo Pasolini: Land der Arbeit (2022) [Official Digital Download 24/48]

The Italian poet, essayist and filmmaker Pier Paolo Pasolini was always an independent and unsparing chronicler of his time. In these texts, he tirelessly denounces social ills in his country; but his Catholic faith and the question of the art of poetry, too, run like strands through his work. "He wanted to celebrate the festival of life, the flower of passion, the flower of play, and finally, as an extreme action, the flower of death, his death," Wolf Wondratschek writes in his accompanying text.
