Vito and the Others (1991), Death of a Neapolitan Mathematician
(1992) and Libera (1993), the debuts of three young Neapolitan
filmmakers, stood out dramatically from the landscape of Italian
cinema in the early 1990s. On the back of their critical success,
over the next decade and a half, Naples became a thriving centre
for film production.In this first study in English of one of the
most vital and stimulating currents in contemporary European
Cinema, Alex Marlow-Mann provides a detailed, multi-faceted and
provocative study of this distinct regional tradition. In tracing
the movement's relationship with the popular musical melodramas
previously produced in Naples, he reveals how contemporary
Neapolitan filmmakers have interrogated, subverted and reconfigured
cinematic convention as part of a through-going re-examination of
Neapolitan identity.Key features include: analyses of over 45
contemporary Italian films, including Paolo Sorrentino's The
Consequences of Love, Mario Martone's L'amore molesto, Antonio
Capuano's Pianese Nunzio: 14 in May and Vincenzo Marra's Sailing
Home; a theoretical discussion of the concept of regional cinema;
an examination of the movement in its broader context as both
product and critique of Mayor Bassolino's 'Neapolitan Renaissance';
and a study of one European film industry in terms of legislation,
production, distribution and exhibition.
