Ellis Donda

Directing

Biography

A very polemic student of Roberto Rossellini and a fan of Jean-Marie Straub's films, a fine experimenter, a lover of poetry, Ellis Donda worked - throughout the 70s and 80s - within a network of film critics, filmmakers, actors, avant-garde poets, public television producers and publishers. During his stay in Paris in the 70s, he spent time with Jacques Lacan and recorded the last interview with Roland Barthes. Long forgotten, his work is now subject to a new rediscovery by Italian curators and journalists.
