Show Notes
Two Senegalese teenagers set out for a new life in Italy in this modern-day Odyssey, framing the immigrant experience as a classical yet contemporary epic. Director Matteo Garrone takes on a role as regista spettatore (“director spectator”), as a European director bringing the real-life journeys of African migrants to the screen. Nominated for the Academy Award for Best International Feature Film, Io capitano is amplified through inspired choices in cinematography and editing, and anchored by a revelatory performance by lead Seydou Sarr.
