Information

Cover Notes: A new BFI collection celebrating the work of filmmaker Lorenza Mazzetti, including new 4K remasters of her short films, plus a new documentary. Lorenza Mazzetti arrived in London from Italy in 1951, survivor of a wartime atrocity in which her Jewish relatives were murdered, she quickly made friends with other artists in a new and different world. Though associated with the realist Free Cinema movement, her stark yet playful films - all shot on location in the capital's bomb-devastated, smog-caked vistas - take the form of psychodramas, influenced by Kafka's bleak absurdity, the horrors she had endured, and the agony she faced missing her twin sister back home. This new set includes Mazzetti's three deeply poetic, avant-garde, narrative London works, all newly remastered by the BFI National Archive, plus a brand-new documentary.
