Film screening “Medea” by Pasolini in the Miracles’ Square

On the occasion of the centenary celebrations of Pier Paolo Pasolini’s birth, Pisa paid homage to one of the greatest intellectuals of the 20th century with a series of cultural initiatives, including screenings of his entire filmography, meetings and book presentations, as well as an exhibition event entitled ‘Something is always missing…’ with videos, photographs and graphic works at the Museo della Grafica in Palazzo Lanfranchi.

The celebratory events culminate on Wednesday 29 June at 9 p.m. with the screening of the film ‘Medea’, in Italian with English subtitles. The event will be open and free of charge, with access to the lawn in front of the stretch of wall adjacent to the entrance to Piazza Manin (behind the Baptistery), where spectators can freely sit on the lawn. A giant screen measuring 16×7 metres will be lowered from the historical walls, with two large iconic banners next to it, recalling the initiative.
