Suddenly last winter
Of Gustav Hofer and Luca Ragazzi Luca

and Gustav are a couple in Italy that on issues like sexual freedom and the achievement of certain civil rights continues to suffer heavy influences, especially from the Catholic world. It is clearly perceived, both in the political decisions of the widespread mentality which, with ignorance and backwardness from which crosses cultural beliefs and taboos often likely to send back the hands of history. Almost a regurgitation of the Middle Ages And so, like what happens in the world of work, you have the uneasy feeling that we have social mores regress instead of progress, rather than consolidate those achievements to high price, hence the efforts of several generations.
should not be underestimated, therefore the importance of film as suddenly last winter, which is able to exhibit very acumen, without ever giving up the weapon of irony, a matter so urgent, one of many who see the opposing fringes obscurantist and reactionary clerical-fascist brand to new demands of a part of Italian society, unwilling to submit to the dictates Vatican and its loyal standard bearer. The object of the dispute is represented by DiCo (rights and obligations of persons permanently living together), or the proposed law passed by the Prodi government in 2007 and soon sunk by a myriad of external pressures. DiCo before there was talk of PACS, but later ostracism of several public figures, always ready to argue both in Parliament and through the media, the special commission tried to take refuge in the CUS (coding at high risk of confusion with a well-known institution for university sports ...), then conclude the ignoble farce in a stalemate. With the approval of the Catholic hierarchy, of course, whose vicars the most narrow-minded and stubborn (see Monsignor Bagnasco) were thrown from the beginning of a strong rhetoric of medieval preachers, against a legislative process that would have brought considerable benefits to gay couples and beyond.
Gustav Hofer and Luca Ragazzi, I said at the beginning are a couple like many others. Lived together for several years, and it is normal to have witnessed this sad spectacle, seasoned with hypocrisy and thoughts extremely bleak, with some dismay. Luca and Gustav, however, are two reporters, on other occasions have given their support, with undoubted consistency, awareness campaigns aimed at combating homophobia and rampant conformism. The common passion is poured into a documentary so much militant sui generis, which cost a few thousand euro, in which the views of those who consider themselves secular shows in the most appropriate: avoiding, ie, the schematic of the pamphlet, and allowing authors to stage personally, so let it flow in absolute simplicity fragments of daily life and historical footage, and situational improvisations deliciously accurate documentary evidence, all stand out interviews collected during political demonstrations in tone and very different objectives, from Gay Pride to Family Day with great ease, but without glossing over any paternal feelings (emphasizing, in fact, the flow in a very witty), our Luca and Gustav have infiltrated in places and situations that would discourage any thinking being: here they are struggling with the representatives of esaltatissimi Militia Christi or some awkward looking young, still gatherings of the Communion and Liberation, or on special occasions such as Family Day , say in a tone of safe and facial expression of emotional obtuseness that homosexuality is a disease. The German residing in St. Peter looks down his flock and smiles pleased. Well, before the sad spectacle of the beautiful country provincial and dogmatic, the two directors have the merit of not keep quiet about the pettiness offers galore by the political class and other sections of civil society, but lightening it all with a fresh and lively, at from the editor (remarkable, as in L'Orchestra di Piazza Vittorio, the work of Desideria Rayner). Theirs is an obstacle course which is still airy, in spite of the discomfort that some meetings could lead. I approached many people bigots and closed during the shooting did not in fact prevented the authors to devise a final cheerful and irreverent, which has the taste of freedom, the authentic one.
