Description

Boyhood was the very first film shown at the reopening of Cinecitta. Naturally, our visitors and we saw that Boyhood had a unique narrative structure, but we didn’t know at the time that the film would later be nominated for six Oscars that year. We can now proudly say that Boyhood was a wonderful film to mark our reopening at that time.

Boyhood is a unique experience unmatched in film history. Filmed over a period of 12 years with the same actors, Boyhood captures in astonishing detail the youth of Mason. In a touching coming-of-age story, we witness Mason grow up before our eyes from boy to man. We also follow his sister Samantha and their divorced parents. As the years pass by, we see how each of them navigates new phases in their lives and how their relationships evolve. A beautiful and heartwarming tribute to growing up, family life, and the passage of time. An instant classic that leaves no one untouched.
