The Teatrino presents the new edition of the arthouse cinema screening programme curated by critic and curator Dominique Païni. From October to December 2025, the eight evenings will be dedicated to Thomas Schütte and his current exhibition at Punta della Dogana.
Inspired by the German artist's ironic and restless view of the human condition, the programme “Thomas Schütte, the metamorphosis of the body” presents a selection of films from different eras and genres that explore the almost infinite possibilities of transformation, hybridisation and metamorphosis of the human body.
