On 20.02.2002, in the almost complete indifference of the institutions and the press, died in Rome Simone Lecca, film director, philosopher and visual artist, one of the most eccentric and extravagant figures of last century. The 'Simone Lecca Foundation', collective organization set up in the aftermath of his departure, has produced the interesting documentary by Monica Celse & Piero Tomaselli, which premiered in Italy on February 20, 2012 at the National Film Archive of Rome, on the occasion of the tenth anniversary of the death of the Master. The event was attended by many of Lecca's friends and collaborators, including Enrico Ghezzi, Carlo Lizzani, Giuliano Montaldo, Moni Ovadia, GianMarco Tognazzi, Lorenzo Pizzanelli, Martine Brochard, Citto Maselli, Daniele Pettinari, Vittorio Giacci, Angelo Zedda, Stefano Catucci, Pierre Bazieh and Andrea Diprè.
