Prova D'Orchestra (1:09:18)
- Awards: 1 win
- Italian Audio
Legendary Italian director Federico Fellini offered up this departure in 1979, centering on the travails of an orchestra and the relationships within it. Aiming for a more sober, studied approach than in his other work, Fellini explores the dynamics of the musicians as they prepare for a concert under the tutelage of a belligerent conductor. Shooting in the style of a television documentary with interviews and behind-the-scenes footage, Fellini manages to create the subtly absurdist humor he is known for while still drawing parallels to modern society from this troupe of musicians. Some fully creditable critics deemed "Prova d'orchestra" as being Fellini's main masterpiece.
