A partire dal dolce is an intriguing exploration of the concept of 'dolce' through a series of portraits and interventions featuring thinkers and artists connected to Gianfranco Baruchello. The film's atmosphere is contemplative, with a slow pacing that allows the viewer to absorb the unique insights shared by its eclectic cast, including rare appearances by figures like Jean-François Lyotard. It’s distinctive for its blending of documentary style with an almost poetic examination of softness and gentleness in thought and art. The practical effects are subtle, focusing more on the authenticity of dialogue than flashy visuals, making it a thought-provoking watch for those interested in the avant-garde.
This film has a somewhat elusive status among collectors, primarily due to its limited distribution and the obscure nature of its director. Formats are sparse; if you find an original VHS or perhaps a DVD release, hang onto it. The film has garnered interest for its unique approach to philosophical discourse and the rare footage it contains, making it an intriguing piece for those diving into 1970s experimental documentary cinema.
