ROME - A launch the alarm has been the managing director of Cinecitta, Luciano Sovena in an interview with the Corriere della Sera Paolo Conti Cinecittà is likely to close. The funding cuts - in 2011 riceveerà state only 7 and a half million euro - even endanger uan of excellence, the historical archive. In the days before 100Autori joins forces on behalf of the director Maurizio Sciarra, among the most active of the association had anticipated, "opened Friday with the procedure ministerial crisis due to redundancies - said Sciarra - where no recovery plan is the Light of Cinecittà was presented. The funds provided by the government so far have served only to pay the salaries of employees for months while it stops any strategic activity. It's very serious. "
The Light at the Cinecittà to the Courier was explicit: 'It involved the future of the audiovisual most prestigious brand in Italy and among the oldest in the world. " And now came the reaction. A Cicchitto
Veltroni - The outrage, at least in words touch all atrco constitutional. "It would be a bitter paradox if just as Italy celebrated the sesquicentennial of his birth were to attend the closing of the oldest and most prestigious center of culture and entertainment industry represented by Cinecittà-Luce," said Walter Veltroni. "But the cuts and short-sighted policy of punishment and the right to the government could lead to this outcome. Defending Cinecittà-Light should be a must on the contrary: here you will weave the great heritage (perhaps one of the largest in the world) of movies and audiovisual material on our country, the international promotion of our film production and distribution and commitment to documentaries and support young writers. " "We must certainly raise the cry of alarm coming from Cinecittà and Istituto Luce. Just a few resources to give continuity to key cultural institutions in the life of the nation. An important reservoir for the historical memory of Italy and support for our cultural activities, " relaunched the Chairman of the Senate Pdl, Maurizio Gasparri, followed closely by the team leader in the House PDL Fabrizio Cicchitto: "These figures are very small in view of the need to maintain activity in Cinecittà and cultural institutions that make up the Istituto Luce a very important element in our historical memory. " . Raised on behalf of Fli, Fabio Granata, "We need immediate action and overtime to save the Istituto Luce Cinecittàda the Government." I agree to the UDC also Lorenzo Cesa, "We, like many experts, are concerned about the heavy amount of cuts that will face Cinecittà Light. A bill is the duty rationalization of resources and the fight against waste, another is put at risk the very survival of a historical and cultural as Cinecitta film and audiovisual heritage as an invaluable Istituto Luce. "
DIRECTORS & PRODUCERS - To take the field in favor of Cinecittà Light, are also directors and producers like Marco Bellocchio, Gianni Amelio, Saverio Costanzo, Angelo Barbagallo, Mimmo Calopresti. "The institute light - Gianni Amelio says - is the historical memory of our cinemas, who loses his memory of his past also lose their future." Saverio Costanzo instead for "The beginning, without the help of a public body, it is impossible to do it, and I would not have made my first movie had I not been supported by Cinecittà Light. This without forgetting the importance of the Archives, which is known to all. " For the producer Angelo Barbagallo: "It is yet another tragic news of this period marks a total disregard by the government to the industry. Cinecittà is a legacy of Italian cinema, but not Italy. It carries out fundamental and essential activities as well as the preservation of film heritage, the distribution of first and second films and promotion of Italian cinema abroad activities essential for survival and renewal of our cinema, and that at this time only the light is able to play. " Raise Marco Bellocchio: "In the case of Cinecittà Light is on, inter alia, a unique archive which must remain the rule, a true treasure overwhelming. Indeed - adds the director of Fists in the Pocket -, the store should be strengthened, if anything. It is a real Italian heritage that is threatened right now that people are talking about history II director Mimmo Calopresti stresses: "The light image of the institution are World Heritage Site, the memory of humanity must be safeguarded. It is rhetorical celebrate the unification of Italy in the name of our historical memory and then cut the funds that allow you to live that memory. The culture must continue to exist because they do not die life on planet earth. " The director of the Venice Film Festival Marco Muller notes: "The programs of the last editions of the Venice Film Festival has shown how valuable the role of Cinecittà Light in the exploitation of new directors and defense options auteur who know indeed bind to the territory. If the threat of closure is confirmed, not only crippled the Italian cinema to come out: to lose a historic brand as important, just when foreigners want to come back to show Cinecittà turn, would mean hopelessly impoverished in terms of international communication that remains Made in Italy film. " Sergio Zavoli also spoke, President della commissione di Vigilanza Rai. «La ventilata chiusura di Cinecittà è di per sè un cattivo pensiero: frutto di una pericolosa deriva dei nostri patrimoni culturali. Sarebbe un'operazione, anche se ben dissimulata, vagamente barbarica». E Gian Luigi Rondi - presidente dell'Ente David di Donatello, del Festival di Roma (Fondazione Cinema per Roma), e Commissario straordinario della Siae - dice: «È come spegnere la voce del cinema italiano. Non solo, è come cancellare l'immagine dell'Italia dal dopoguerra».
