In Venice Padrenostro, terrorism is a family matter

(ANSA) - ROME, AUGUST 08 - Such a shocking event and then all the following time, suspended with the fear that it will happen again and that it will not end there, they mark forever even if you are a child. Hariannodato his inner threads, reworked them, made them become something else, a story for the cinema, Claudio Noce, the 45-year-old director who brings Padrenostro to the Venice Film Festival (2-12 September). In thanking for the selection, Noce (Good Morning Aman, The Ice Forest, NonUccidere, 1994) revealed that this film "has a particular meaning, it is a story inspired by my family". The film, written by Noce with Enrico Audenino, set in 1976 in Rome, tells the story of Valerio's life upset when, together with his mother Gina (Barbara Ronchi), he witnesses the attack on his father Alfonso (Pierfrancesco Favino) by a commando of terrorists. From that moment on, the fear and the feeling of vulnerability have dramatically marked the feelings of the whole family. But it is precisely in those difficult days that Valerio meets Christian (Francesco Gheghi), a little boy bigger than him. Solitary, rebellious and brazen, he seems to have come out of nowhere. That meeting, in a summer in Calabria full of discoveries, will change their lives forever.
    The attack took place on December 14, 1976, and it was a war action of the proletarian armed groups who decided to kill, right at the exit of his home in Monteverde, the deputy commissioner Alfonso Noce responsible for the anti-terrorism section of Lazio and Abruzzo, as the giornalidell'epoca. The attack resulted in the wounding of Noce's legs, the killing of one of the two policemen in the escort, the 24-year-old agent Prisco Palumbo, and a terrorist, Martino Zichitella, who was shot by mistake. Once tracked down, the members of Nap would have two life sentences. (HANDLE).
