«Città Nuda» – Live Music & Film

A special event is about to arrive at the RUFA Campus: an evening where cinema and music meet live, between viewing and improvisation.
An emotional film, shot in Rome by RUFA students, comes to life on the big screen thanks to a live improvised by the exceptional musical trio YÔKAI.

Start: 9:00 PM – RUFA Campus, Via Libetta, 7 – Free admission.
 

“The contemplation of things as they are
without error or confusion
is an extremely noble act
above all a tale of fiction.”

William Carlos Williams

The film originates from a collective project by RUFA students, developed within the Digital Video course led by Alessandro Carpentieri. Inspired by a poem by William Carlos Williams, the work explores the idea of observing reality with a free, sincere, and emotional gaze. Through fixed, horizontal shots—moving photographs—each student visually captured what resonated with them, creating a mosaic of intimate and urban stories.
For the first time, these materials are presented in a single edit that journeys through the city of Rome, focusing on the neighborhoods of Garbatella, Ostiense, and San Lorenzo.

Accompanying the screening:
a fully improvised live music performance, featuring the exceptional musicians of the YÔKAI trio:

Marco Colonna – bass clarinet
Fabrizio Spera – drums, percussion
Christian Maddalena – shamisen, electronics

Don’t miss this opportunity to be carried away by images and sounds in dialogue, to see Rome with new eyes. We look forward to seeing you.
