Acting
Mammamia!
Mammamia! is an Italian television series that aired between 2003 and 2004 , written and directed by Maurizio Nichetti. The series unfolds in thirty episodes of eight minutes each, and no dialogue. The heroine is Angela Finocchiaro, who plays the part of a mother struggling with the problems of the daily life of her children of 4, 7 and 13 years.
Hearts and Armour
Love during wartime blossoms between crusader Bradamante—a female knight wearing an invincible suit of armor—and Moorish prince Ruggero. A sorceress predicts to Bradamante that her beloved will die in battle at the hand of a fellow Christian paladin, Rolando, whom in turn is in love with Isabella, Ruggero's sister.
Allegro Non Troppo
The film is a parody of Disney's Fantasia, though possibly more of a challenge to Fantasia than parody status would imply. In the context of this film, "Allegro non Troppo" means Not So Fast!, an interjection meaning "slow down" or "think before you act" and refers to the film's pessimistic view of Western progress (as opposed to the optimism of Disney's original).
