MOUTH OF THE WOLF SCREENING AT MAYSLES CINEMA


Harlem Bespoke: Ahead of the premiere of his new film Scarlet at the 60th New York Film Festival, Maysles Cinema presents a repertory screening of Pietro Marcello’s sumptuous docufiction saga The Mouth of the Wolf as part of our ongoing series Truth Before Fiction, which features early documentary work by filmmakers now best known for their fiction films.  

Thursday,  September 15th, 7:30PM,  Mouth of the Wolf in-theater screening at Maysles Cinema, 343 Lenox Avenue by West 127th Street.  Winner of major prizes at the Berlin and Turin film festivals, the hauntingly beautiful debut feature from Pietro Marcello (Lost and Beautiful, Martin Eden) interweaves two love stories: the 20-year romance between a Sicilian tough guy and a transsexual former junkie whom he met in prison, and a poetic reverie of the Italian port town of Genoa, depicted in all its mysterious, fading glory.   More details and online tickets at the Maysles Cinema site: LINK
