"Smisuratamente, pazzamente Pasolini", the project conceived by Massimo Minella and Sergio Maifredi and produced by the University of Genoa, Teatro Pubblico Ligure and Ansaldo Foundation reaches its fourth and last appointment: "Con le ali ai piedi", scheduled for Friday, April 16 at 9 p.m. on the YouTube channel of the University of Genoa.

With "Smisuratamente, pazzamente Pasolini", Massimo Minella, journalist and writer, has led the audience on a journey to discover different themes and lesser-known aspects of Pasolini's production and life: after "L'ultimo poeta civile" with Francesco De Nicola (online from 26 March),"La folgorazione figurativa" with Lauro Magnani (online from 2 April) and "La forma della città" with Carlo Berio (online from 9 April), the cycle closes with an original topic: Pasolini's passion for football.

The fourth and last appointment of the project was filmed at Villa Cattaneo dell'Olmo, the headquarters of the Ansaldo Foundation, in Corso Perrone in Genoa, and will be online on Friday 16 April, again at 9 p.m."Con le ali ai piedi" is entirely dedicated to football, one of Pasolini's greatest passions; he writes about it, follows it as a great fan, but above all loves to play it, both in the suburban fields and in the big stadiums. The theme is also addressed through the direct testimony of those who took to the field with him, including the actor Tullio Solenghi and the journalist Paolo Zerbini, in the match played on May 29th 1975 at the Marassi stadium. In that match, Pasolini wore the Genoa red and blue jersey to play with the same colours of the Bologna team of which he was a fan. A boundless love, the one for football, summarized in the conversation with the lawyer Roberto Pani, expert in corporate law and sports law, vice-president of the Carlo Felice Theatre Foundation and owner of a very popular sports blog.

To open the episode, a memory of Marco Sciaccaluga, actor, director and director of the acting school of the National Theatre of Genoa, who died prematurely last March.
