Pasolini e la Terza Generazione

The film is inspired by the book pasolini and the third generation. The protagonist of the film is Paolo Pilati, one of the Ragazzi di Vita, so dear to Pier Paolo Pasolini. The nickname Tarzanetto was born a Sunday long ago at Lake Bracciano. The Maestro (Pasolini) used to take the boys to the lake, along with the school children he worked for at Ciampino. There, Er Ciriola, one of the students, threw himself into the lake while not knowing how to swim; then, Paolo Pilati, who stood on a tree and saw the scene, decided to jump into the water to save his companion. Everything starts from the First Meeting of Tarzanetto and his companions with Pasolini at the "Prato delle Tavolette". The continuation of the narrative shows us a teenage Tarzanetto following the teachings of his Master. Paolo Pilati known as Tarzanetto is one of the boys of life decanted in the anonymous Pasolinian novel. He enters the world of cinema as a boy, thanks to his skills as a blacksmith, collaborating with filmmakers and set designers. Like a storyteller, Tarzanetto performs shows, writes books, talks with school children. Between reality and imagination, his stories propose a cross-section of life in the Roman suburbs in the 60s. Pilati tells a different Pasolini from how we know it. Not only a teacher, writer, poet and director: Pasolini was above all an ironic, strong man, a martial arts master, a skilled soccer player, a lover of good food. He collaborates with various writers like Daniela molina and Irene Dini writing for the newspaper "viavai".
