Three times Tonino is a creative documentary about one of
Europes most significant screenwriters, Tonino Guerra, who wrote scripts to
more than 120 movies, by Fellini, Antonioni, Tarkovskij and Angelopoulos. Tonino
Guerra was also a poet, a painter, a sculpturer – an artist.
Three times Tonino is a documentary about Tonino, with
Tonino and in collaboration with Tonino. The director Andreas Kassel and Tonino
Guerra met 10 years ago and it developed into a friendship and a dialogue about
art, poetry and life. Andreas started filming Tonino 6 years ago and in the
movie we meet Tonino during three different periods in his life and under three
different themes and the film is therefore structured in three parts.
