Ballata Femmenella | OmeU

Description

Elettra Raffaela Melucci, Giovanni Battista Origo (IT, 2026, 95′) Language: Italian Subtitles: English “Trans* you become; as a Femenella you are born.” Let’s set this bold assertion aside for now, but it symbolises the deep pride and the heads held high that the impressive ladies* of a certain age embody in this captivating documentary. They appear fearless, even though some of them reveal terrible experiences. The journey to becoming the people they have always been was marked by exclusion, discrimination, violence and loneliness. Suffering, grief and resistance have made them strong, yet have not made them bitter. Ballata Femmenella is a highly political and combative portrait of a unique scene in beautiful Naples.
