• Resumen

  • Pier Paolo Pasolini asked to shoot one the scenes in his film "Teorema" (1968) in the home of the architect Guglielmo Mozzoni, an innovative stilt house called "La Zelata" set on grounds surrounded by woods near the river Ticino. The felicitous interaction of building and landscape made such an impression on the director that he sought out a remarkable natural setting for himself, and a house in which he could create something original, of the kind he had seen in "La Zelata". He had became very fond of a landscape in Upper Lazio during the shooting of "The Gospel According to Saint Matthew", and after having purchased property in that enchanted place, entrusted the project for the residence to Dante Ferretti, who was then working with him as a young set designer. The architect of "La Zelata" who lived to the age of ninety-nine, never lost his fervent youthful inventiveness, and devoted himself until his death in 2014 to an audacious project involving highly advanced technology: the "Città Ideale".
