Bisognerebbe fare qualcosa: Interview with Lora Guerra

In this wide-ranging interview, Lora Guerra talks of her meeting and marrying Tonino Guerra; of Guerra’s relationship to Russia, Lora’s homeland; of Tonino and Lora’s relationships with Michelangelo and Enrica Antonioni, Federico Fellini and Andrei Tarkovsky, among many others; of Guerra’s international interests beyond Russia; of his favourite writers; his years in Rome and his move back (with Lora) to Romagna in the 1980s; his methods of collaboration with different directors; his environmentalism, particularly in his later years; the nature of his art and vision – ‘peasant’ despite its cosmopolitanism.
