Stendalì (Still They Toll)

Stendalì (suonano ancora)
Cecilia Mangini
1965 • Italy • 11’

In Salento (Southern Italy), women dressed in black mourn the dead. In Stendalì, Mangini depicts that tradition in a frantic, almost delusional rhythm, which is amplified by the avant-garde music of Egisto Macchi.
