    Title:
    Lolita
    2007, 0:43

    synopsis
    Women are not sexually dead after menopause. A homage to Stanley Kubrick. And, ironically, to Vladimir Nabokov’s male protagonist, Humbert Humbert, who loved Lolita and raped her in her pre-teens,
    after having married her mother (and killed her) in order to be near the girl.

    Fratelli d’Italia
    2007, 1:44

    Foreigners say that Italians talk with their hands, but they are not the only ones. The video presents a series of portraits of people moving their hands beautifully when they talk, while the Italian national anthem (whose title means Brothers of Italy) plays.
