The Circular Scene poster

Released in 1982, The Circular Scene is a notable film directed by Claudio Caldini, running about 8 minutes.

What it’s about. The silhouettes of a couple in the window were filmed with few directions for the protagonists. They suggested the synthesis of cinematic space and the universality of their figures. The camera draws attention to moments, gestures, and actions, all inserted into the parentheses of a fade-in/fade-out. Cinema rediscovered as an effective memory machine.

How it landed. With an audience score of 9.0/10, The Circular Scene sits among the best-reviewed titles in the catalogue.
