ZAPRUDERfilmmakersgroup, founded in 2000, is a collective of italian independent filmakers (David Zamagni, Nadia Ranocchi, Monaldo Moretti) devoted to the unusual practice of the production of out of format films. The refined artisan quality of Zapruder leads to a series of devices and performative environments which stand for disembodied theatre and embodied cinema. In parallel to a frequent participation to main European festivals of New Cinema and Experimental theatre, Zapruder collaborates with italian theatre companies such as Fanny & Alexander, Romeo Castellucci/Societas Raffaello Sanzio and Motus. Known for their 3D and steroscopic productions, they have premiered in festivals and institutions such as Mostra del Cinema di Venezia, Rotterdam film Festival, Festival del cinema di Roma, Milano Film Festival, Oberhausen Kurzfilmtage, Biennale de l’image en mouvement Geneve, Steirischer Herbst Graz, Centre Pompidou Paris, Live Arts Week Bologna, Transmediale Berlin, Netmage Bologna, Santarcangelo Festival, Art Fall Ferrara, PAC Milan.
