Locarno Today - 4 | 8 | 2022

The second, very rich day of Locarno75 as recounted by Alessandro De Bon and Giona A. Nazzaro. It’s the first day of competitions, with Mahesh Narayanan’s Ariyippu and Ming Jin Woo’s Stone Turtle in the Concorso internazionale, as well as the first shorts in Pardi di domani. Additionally, we keep going with the complete retrospective of Douglas Sirk, with publications and in-depth musings. Piazza Grande boasts the surreal comedy My Neighbor Adolf, but it’s also the day of Matt Dillon, a versatile artist who is receiving the Festival’s Lifetime Achievement Award.
