“I’m a director who writes, not a writer.”—Michelangelo Antonioni
Thirty-three richly suggestive stories by Antonioni, that range in length from a single paragraph to several pages. Not stories in the usual sense, these are instead a series of evocative sketches or “narrative nuclei,” each the genesis for a possible future film. Although he ultimately didn’t develop these ideas further, encountering them now provides a unique glimpse into Antonioni’s mind and cinematic point of view.
