About

After Life (Hirokazu Koreeda) screens in Sala 1. In a reception centre that serves as a limbo, a team of counsellors receives groups of the recently deceased and asks each person to choose their happiest memory. That memory is then recreated cinematically and accompanies each person into eternity. Over the course of a week, the group revisits loves, losses, regrets and small joys. The film is a sensitive meditation on what gives human existence meaning and on cinema's ability to preserve and give shape to those experiences. Tickets are on sale.
