Film Under the Stars: The Salt of Life

Type: Cinema

During summer nights, the film stars come out at Ljubljana castle. A selection of this season’s top films has once again been put together by Kinodvor in co-operation with the City of Ljubljana and Ljubljana Castle. In the open-air cinema, under the stars, in the castle courtyard, no less than five cinematic delights will be screened for the first time in Slovenia.

Films are screened in their original language with Slovene subtitles.

The Salt of Life
Gianni Di Gregorio, Italy, 2011, 90'
C: Gianni Di Gregorio, Valeria di Franciscis Bendoni, Alfonso Santagata, Elisabetta Piccolomini

The recently retired Gianni has many things to worry about, but romance is not one of them. At least not until his friend Alfonso decides to reacquaint him with the “salt of life”. But poor Gianni is like an old, rusty car: the engine might still be rolling, but more is needed to get him back on the road… Director-actor Gianni Di Gregorio convincingly plays the lead in this autobiographically tinted, bittersweet, sparkling comedy. Italian spoken.
