- A never-seen-before short movie is resurrected from the archives of the Cinematheque of Bologna: "Ragazzo Motore" starring the auteur Pier Paolo Pasolini. The unedited film is the starting point of a journey across the universe of Pasolini. Non-conventional rebel and provocateur, persecuted by the censorship, praised by the critic and eventually the mainstream: from his very first film "Accattone" (1961) to the last scandalous "Salò" (1975), Pasolini fearlessly investigates burning social topics such as sexuality and the end of the grand ideologies. Inexhaustible lover of life, in all its forms, poet, philosopher, filmmaker. His revolution scandalous and candid, his sensibility ancient yet modern. A unique voice in the cultural scene of the 20th Century, and one of the most important figures of the Italian "New Wave."
- Twenty kilometers from Saumur, near the town of Montreuil-Bellay, in Maine-et-Loire, thousands of Gypsies were interned between November 1941 and January 1945. The "nomads", as they were called at the time , were first placed under house arrest before being locked up on the orders of the German authorities. The Montreuil-Bellay camp was the largest internment camp for nomads in France. More than half of the Gypsies interned in France passed through this camp. Families were interned there for 5 years until January 1945.
