2020 marks 100 years since the birth of Federico Fellini, the most prominent Italian director and one of the symbols of the insuperable cinematic heyday of mid-20th century. Fellini had always been a mysterious director, not only in his cryptic symbolism but also in his idiosyncratic, excessive mixture of psychoanalysis, Catholicism and faith in the mysterious. In this documentary, his relationship with the paranormal, luck and fate, alongside the coexistence of organized discourse and transcendence to the imaginary, is examined via friends, collaborators and distinguished fans (Friedkin, Gilliam, Chazelle). A great testimony to why rationalists and ideologists have a hard time with his work, ‘Fellini and the Spirits’ is an appropriate yet unexpected tribute.

In this documentary film, directed by Dominique Maillet for StudioCanal, director Martin Scorsese, cast and crew members, and prominent critics and historians discuss Life is Beautiful and its success, as well as Roberto Benigni's career.

Before they met, they had not found success in the film industry. Michelangelo Antonioni did not direct Italian comedies. Monica Vitti did not have the looks of a Sophia Loren or a Gina Lollobrigida. United in life and on screen, they would become the creators of L'Avventura, La Notte, and L'Eclisse. Three legendary films, three declarations of love.
