Italy
Gianfranco Rosi
Naples faces dual volcanic threats from Vesuvius and Campi Flegrei. Amid increasing tremors, archaeologists work as residents live anxiously, haunted by Pompeii’s fate, while emergency services strain.
Gianfranco Rosi was born to Italian parents in Asmara, Eritrea, and grew up in Eritrea, Rome, and Istanbul before moving to New York City, where he studied film at NYU. His documentaries include BELOW SEA LEVEL (2008), EL SICARIO, ROOM 164 (2010), SACRO GRA (2013), and the festival official selections BOATMAN (1993), and FIRE AT SEA (1916).
