directed by Pier Paolo Pasolini. Italy, 1968, 34 min.
Pasolini plans a film on democratic India and its legends: his Notes, comprising images filmed in the streets of Mumbai and its unbelievably poor suburbs, reveal the poet's shock when faced with the country's contradictions and, by contrast, his astonishment at the serenity of the common people.

An Hour With Ezra Pound
directed by Vanni Ronsisvalle. Italy, 1968, 70 min.
Pasolini interviews the great American poet, questioning him on a variety of issues connected with art, literature and painting. Adopting an extraordinarily modern approach, he uses the tool of television to intervene both poetically and politically, taking a fresh look at Pound's fascism through his poetry.
