12.“Per me il documentario è relazione”: The Eloquence of Found Footage and Garment Workers’ Rights in Costanza Quatriglio’s Triangle

by Valeria Castelli

This article examines Costanza Quatriglio’s use of found footage in Triangle (2014). This documentary film deals with the collapse of a building in Barletta in Apulia in 2011, in which four female textile workers and the factory owner’s daughter were killed. These deaths in the workplace are correlated with the notorious case of the victims of the fire at the Triangle Waist Company factory in New York in 1911. Quatriglio creatively uses found footage to persuade viewers of the similarities between the two accidents at work,

13. Italian Office Workers from Comedy Italian Style to Ugo Fantozzi: A Gendered Perspective

Represented as a male-dominated space, the office is a privileged site of production of masculine identities in comedy Italian style. The high-ranking male clerical worker is therein depicted as a paradigm of successful masculinity in the Italian economy’s boom years. A trademark of successful masculinity, office design and its filmic representations has evolved throughout the decades, to reflect status and rank, and also a muted aesthetic taste. Comedy Italian style was not the first to represent office interior space as much as to appropriate it (alongside the restaurant,

14. Anorexic symptoms in Clara Sereni’s Casalinghitudine

Structured like a cookbook, the autobiographical novel Casalinghitudine (1987) by Clara Sereni uses food preparation, consumption, and preservation as a narrative mechanism to reflect on the protagonist’s journey towards self-awareness and gender and ethnic identity formation. The highly subjective nature of this text is immediately obvious in several ways, such as the assertive tone of the recipes through the predominance of the agent ‘I’ and the overall organization of the book that unusually starts with a section on baby food.
