L'ETNA NEL CINEMA Un vulcano di celluloide

Mt. Etna, the highest volcano in Europe, is so fascinating that the cinema couldn’t help telling and describing its magnificent scenarios. Great film directors (Pasolini, Straub-Huillet, Jean Epstein) have been inspired by the volcano, its myth, mystery, celestial fire; in their works the volcanic landscape has often become the symbol of a lost spirituality, of a primitive and horrific nature, of the passions of its inhabitants.

For the first time, the volume gathers a series of remarks on Etnean cinematography and a considerable number of pictures from the movies that are discussed in the book.
