Carnevalesca with the beautiful Lydia Borelli is divided in to 4 parts: white carnival - innocent and pure childhood, blue carnival - love and youth, red carnival - violent and destructive passion, black carnival - death and madness.

An Italian emigrant, who found fame and success in America, comes back to his hometown after over twenty years.

The great Italian opera composer recalls his eventful life on his deathbed: his childhood in Busseto, his studies in Milan, his first opera "Oberto, conte di San Bonifacio", the death of his wife and his children killed by smallpox.

La storia dei tredici is an Italian silent film starring Lyda Borelli.

The film tells in a humorous way of the artistic aspirations of a young and bourgeoisie fraulein who wants to become a famous actress, the most important diva of all times, although her family , especially her father, are unhappy with her artistic dreams. But thanks to her tenacity, as well as the collaboration of some servants and members of her family (they help her rehearse her roles which are taken from Roman Empire times), the young fraulein finally gets to star in a film. But the premiere will be a disaster because due to the inexperience of the projectionist, the actors in the picture are all rapidly moving backwards, causing general laughter in the audience and spelling the end of the glorious but brief cinematic career of our heroine.

Dramatization of a chess game, where the characters were dressed like the various pieces and moved on a chessboard floor.

In the kingdom of Culrandia (a country that must border Ruritania) King Ottocar must give his daughter’s hand in marriage to the prince of another country. Bebè, tired of waiting for her fiancé, tracks him down in Paris and brings him back to Culrandia where they are eventually married.

Le mogli e le arance is characterized by a wonderful sereneness. It is the kind of quietude which many of us connect immediately with the south. Everything seems to be in its perfect place, and time is just passing. In the setting of a sanatorium a nobleman is practicing idleness and slow-motion mind games. Does it sound boring? Yes, it does. But it is not, the uneventfulness is definitively enthralling. The film director tries to narrate time, time itself, as such, for its own sake: a rare experiment.

Directed by Lucio D'Ambra.
