Dionysus: between art and wine

There is an unbreakable bond between cinema and wine & food, which are both under the protection of Dionysus, the god of recklessness and imagination”. This is how Lina Wertmuller defines art and Dionysus, in whose honor Montalcino, in 1986, staged a banquet, directed by Ferruccio Marotti. But it was Dario Fo that summer in Montalcino, who talked about the theater and its connection with the cult of Dionysus. “The theater, from its inception, is a way to gain great strength and emotion, a moment of catharsis and liberation. And laughter is a good way to reflect on the stupidity of humans”.
