The Hole, an experimental documentary directed by Michelangelo Frammartino, shows the extraordinary adventure of the young members of the Piedmont Speleological Group who, having already explored all the caves of Northern Italy, changed course in August 1961 and went South to explore other caves unknown to man.
Another movie on the lineup is the comedy-drama, The King of Laughter, directed by Mario Martone, which is about the life of Neapolitan comic theater legend Eduardo Scarpetta.
A Girl Returned is a drama directed by Giuseppe Bonito about a 13-year-old who discovers that she was adopted and is sent to live with her biological family in the Abruzzo region of central Italy.
