I cani dell'acqua marcia (2018)

As Perdo/nanda Pivano (2018) this videoplay by Ottavio Rosati is an example of 'Bricconaggio': the artistic and active catharsis of an old (but still present) trauma. One day in 2001 Ottavio discovered that his young and talented partner Fabio during his "psychotherapy", financed by Ottavio, made frequently sex with "dr. Hide" the famous analyst who for ten years had been the teacher of Rosati. After 16 years Rosati reveals the circumstances and the emotions that he didn't express in 2001, in order to avoid the complete separation from two loved persons fundamental for his identity. The Ottavio's performance is completed by the Voice Off of Maurizio Stuppiggia (Teacher of Psychodrama School IPOD) who explains the consequences of any affective trauma and the specific manipulation with which dr. Hide in 2001 blocked any reaction of Rage of his former pupil. Rosati's videoplay of 2018 ends with a joyful exchange of dogs and revelations about today's gay customs between Ottavio and his pupil Francesco Marzano, author of the book "Ciak si gioca". The two cockers, Winnie and Duffy are the main testimonials of everything, in homage to the phrase of Francoise Dolto: "In a family children and dogs always know everything". The title "I cani dell'acqua Marcia" is inspired by Emanuele Trevi's novel "I cani del nulla" (2003, Einaudi, Stile Libero).
