Monsters of Circeo, the film considered too bloody. Forbidden to minors

“The Catholic School”, the film to be released at cinema which traces the Circeo massacre, will be forbidden to minors under the age of 18. This was decided by the judging commission on the subject. The story refers to a real news story, which happened in September 1975, when the “monsters” Gianni Guido, Angelo Izzo and Andrea Ghira – we read in Corriere della Sera – attracted two girls to a villa in Circeo, Rosaria and Donatella and tortured them to the point of causing Rosaria’s death. «I thought that the Middle Ages were long over but evidently it is not so. I remain convinced that a girl or a boy of today are perfectly capable of distinguishing good from evil without the need for someone to hide the truth from them with the excuse of wanting to protect them “.

Edoardo Albinati, author of the novel, 2016 Strega prize, from which the film is based, goes straight to the point. “It is a very hard blow, not only economic – explains the producer Roberto Sessa to Corriere -. A blow to the credibility of this country, the motivation leaves us stunned, goes into the merits of the narrative, however it happens badly”. cinematographic works of the ministry of culture speak of “substantial equation of the victim and the executioner”. In particular, we read, “the protagonists of the story, although starting from different social situations, all end up appearing unable to understand the situation in which they find themselves involved”.
