"RICO (The Richard Demarco Story) dir. Marco J Federici (85min, 2021)

This new feature documentary represents over a decade's work, bringing together the directors personal footage of Richard Demarco with previously unseen, newly digitised film and photography from the Demarco Archive. From a traumatic childhood during WWII to becoming a director of the Edinburgh International Festival, "RICO"  tells the remarkable story of a visionary who shook the art establishment, bringing some of the most influential names in contemporary art to Scotland for the first time and changing the Edinburgh Festival forever.

The film features interviews and contributions from Brian Cox (HBO's "Succession"), Marina Abramovic, Sir Nicolas Serota and rare footage of Joseph Beuys, Paul Neagu and Tadeusz Kantor.

"RICO" received a world premiere at Yale University in 2021 and has since been screened in Illinois, Toronto, Liverpool, Munich, Berlin, Edinburgh College of Art and won the Central Scotland Doc Fest audience award for best documentary.

Further screenings in Scotland, Poland, Romania and Italy are planned for next year. The director is also currently in talks with national broadcasters and distributors to bring this critically acclaimed film to an even wider audience.
