Che Cosa Sona le Nuvole?

Alternative title
Capriccio All’Italiana
Synopsis
Fiction short. Filmed in in March and April, 1967, as an episode for CAPRICCIO ALL’ ITALIANA. Pasolini transforms Shakespeare’s Othello into a laconic Italian puppet-show comedy with live marionettes embedded in a sub plot. It was Pasolini’s third and final collaboration with the popular actor Toto (Antonio De Curtis), who died immediately after the shooting of the film. Toto, who was nearly blind at the time, plays Iago.
