A musical journey with Enzo Gragnaniello into the memory of “downtown” Naples, of its magical, mythological and historical places. But it is also an exploration through the city’s “uptown”, through its monuments and more lively areas, always punctuated by the realistic and dreamy performances of Gragnaniello with Sud Express, which are intermingled with asides with Neapolitan artists such as Tony Cercola, Marialuisa Santella, Enzo Moscato, Riccardo Veno, Franco del Prete and James Senese, and with the contribution of cinematographic stock images of post-war and 70s Naples. “The project was born from a need to show off a “different” Naples, one that is mythological and magical but also alive throughout the years, through the musical guidance of an impulsive character like Gragnaniello who has been capable of conveying the various spirits of our roots: the lunar, the solar and the popular”. (Carlo Luglio)

CARLO LUGLIO directed his first feature film CAPO NORD, which took part in around twenty festivals, winning awards in Brooklyn (Best actor – Spirit Award) and Valencia (Silver Leaf). The following year he shot CARDILLI ADDOLORATI with Romano Montesarchio, a tragi-comical documentary about poachers. Form 2007 he co-founded the production company Figli del Bronx, with whom he directed SOTTO LA STESSA LUNA, shot during the flash point of the Camorra’s blood feud which devastated the city in 2004- 2005. The film won the Cairo Film Festival and received a Special Mention from the Jury in Annency. Each summer since 2009 he has been filming an experimental short entitled PIANO-FORTE in the assisted living facilities of “La Nostra Zona” in Torre Pellice (Pinerolo, region of Piemonte), which will become a three-episode feature film in 2012.
