It makes you think…
…about the importance of being young, having friends, and most of all enjoying life. Through the experience of four friends, Ligabue shows to the audience how life was back in the 70’s in a small italian village. the four carachters represent the four different aspects of human behavior; also the drug experience is well represented.
Province life
“Radiofreccia” is still a good surprise in Italian cinema. The film is based on a book of Italian songwriter Luciano Ligabue, who also directs the movie and writes the music score -of course.The film is a portrait of north Italian province life, in the Emilia Romagna region. We’re in 1975, the time of the first free radios -one of the boys of the movie creates “Radioraptus”. Youth wishes, friendship, love, sex, individual dramas and unemployment are among the themes, but the film speaks also about drugs -Freccia, the main character, is a victim of heroin slavery.
Without being boring and moralist, the story flows very well; the spontaneity of actors is strong and the way of directing as well. Obviously Luciano “Liga” Ligabue is neither Fellini nor a movie professional, first of all he’s a musician. But he succeeds in making a good product. Unfortunately he’ll not repeat the success with his second movie “Da zero a dieci” -not good at all.
In “Radiofreccia” actors are generally not very famous, the only star is Stefano Accorsi -one of the most popular young Italian actors. See in a small role another Italian songwriter -Francesco Guccini, he’s the nice communist barman and football trainer!
