Are you ready for a summer of cinema under the stars? Get ready to immerse yourself in a unique experience of open-air screenings by Cinemazero, thanks to the review "Cinewave: a wave of movie emotions in Grado Pineta"! One Friday evening a month (20 June, 11 July and 22 August 2025), the beach of Grado Pineta will light up with stories and adventures for young and old, with the background of the waves of the sea, at the "Costa del Sol" bathing establishment.
Our selection of films is designed to take you on exciting journeys: from the eccentric atmosphere of Wes Anderson's ‘Moonrise Kingdom’ to the colourful world of ‘Oceania 2’, the animated film by Dave G. Derrick Jr., Jason Hand and Dana Ledoux Miller, all three making their directorial debut). The journey will conclude with the film ‘A Complete Unknown’ directed by James Mangold, a biopic that traces the journey of the young Bob Dylan from his arrival in New York in 1961 to his controversial concert at the Newport Folk Festival in 1965.
A few info about today's film...
A COMPLETE UNKNOWN (Biographical/Drama/Musical, USA, 2024, directed by James Mangold).
The film chronicles the journey of young Bob Dylan (played by Timothée Chalamet) from his arrival in New York in 1961 to his controversial concert at the Newport Folk Festival in 1965. At first, 19-year-old Dylan knocks on Woody Guthrie's door and is introduced to the Greenwich Village folk scene by Pete Seeger. After an unconvincing debut album, he finds his voice as a songwriter, embarking on a romantic adventure with Sylvie Russo and a professional and romantic relationship with Joan Baez. With his socially conscious lyrics, Dylan gained a large following, but tensions with the folk audience grew. His desire to evolve musically led him to experiment with the electric guitar. This transition culminated in the famous (and controversial) moment at the 1965 Newport Folk Festival, when he introduced electric sound, provoking strong reactions among folk purists. His choice marked a definitive turning point, not only artistically, but also symbolically.
