Marking the 100th anniversary of Pasolini’s birth year, a gorgeous new book from Fireflies Press, Pier Paolo Pasolini: Writing on Burning Paper, explores the iconoclastic artist’s enduring legacy almost 50 years after his murder, bringing together responses to Pasolini’s work from some of the finest contemporary filmmakers, including Catherine Breillat, Angela Schanelec, Mike Leigh, Mariano Llinás, Luc Moullet, and many, many others. In conjunction with the launch of Writing on Burning Paper through the Metrograph Bookstore, this series, curated by Fireflies Press, pairs Pasolini films with films by some of his present-day peers, extending the book’s dialogue between Pasolini’s galvanizing, prodigious genius and film culture today.
