Serial Worlds
The second season of meetings dedicated to TV series 14 October – 16 December 2020
The second season of “Serial Worlds” will once again explore the potential of TV series, in particular that of the small screen seeking connections with the historical moment we are experiencing.
When we use cultural products – from books to films, from songs to paintings to TV series – we bring the serial dynamics with us, even if often unknowingly: the three meetings organised by Stefania Carini will focus on this theme.
A Training Novel
- Wednesday 14 October 2020 at 18:30 - 20:00
From Beverly Hills 90210 to Skam, passing through Friends, the way youth is recounted has changed and the genre has become widespread in Europe, reflected through the various series that tell the stories of these generations.
With **Stefania Carini**, **Ludovico Bessegato**, screenwriter and director of Skam, **Barbara Baraldi**, writer (Aurora Scalviati, Sentenza Artificiale) and screenwriter (Dylan Dog).
History in the Mirror
- Wednesday 11 November 2020 at 18:30 - 20:00
TV recounts the past, but is also material for future historians: from Queen Elizabeth to the pandemic, here is TV that becomes History.
With **Stefania Carini**, **Francesco Arlanch**, screenwriter of Medici and Doc, and **Ludovica Rampoldi**, screenwriter of 1992, The Traitor, Esterno Notte.
Telling Stories about Power
- Wednesday 16 December 2020 at 18:30 - 20:00
TV series also recount the world of politics and power: from West Wing to House of Cards to 1992; this meeting will reflect on how, between utopia and dystopia, TV series can anticipate current events, and how political drama has changed.
With **Stefania Carini**, **Francesco Costa**, journalist from Il Post, and **Marilisa Palumbo**, journalist from Il Corriere della Sera.
