Donato Carrisi

“Clues, obsessions, symbols: every trace leads deeper.
Intrigues, abysses, vertigo in the folds of the ordinary.
Between light and shadow, reality reveals itself in fragments.
In the labyrinth of consciousness, what disturbs continues to challenge.”

 

On Thursday, September 24 at 9:00 p.m., for a unique and unmissable evening, the Italian writer, screenwriter, playwright, and director Donato Carrisi will take the stage at the enchanting Roman Theatre.

His works belong to the psychological thriller, mystery, and noir genres, with some of the most famous including: “The Suggestion,” his first novel and winner of several awards, including the Bancarella Prize in 2009, “The Girl in the Fog,” which won the David di Donatello in 2018, “The Hypothesis of Evil,” “The Man of the Labyrinth,” and “I Am the Abyss.” Some of his works have also been adapted for the big screen by the writer himself.

At the Roman Theatre, Carrisi will talk about the thriller genre, in which clues, obsessions, and hidden signs become tools for exploring the depths of the human soul.

 

The event is part of the renowned series “Festival of Beauty,” organized each year by the Cultural Association IDEM – paths of relationship, a reality that promotes reflections on our evolving identities, on the cultural and artistic creations that outline the horizons of meaning of existence; it offers opportunities for meeting and discussion, especially among the youth, performances, and publications, with curiosity and pleasure in search of beauty.
