No Dogs or Italians Allowed (French: Interdit aux chiens et aux italiens) is a 2022 adult stop-motion comedy-drama film written and directed by Alain Ughetto.[1]

Plot

[edit]

A coproduction of companies from France, Italy, Belgium, Switzerland and Portugal, the claymation film recounts the story of Ughetto's grandfather Luigi, who emigrated from Italy to France in the early 1900s for a better life despite widespread anti-Italian discrimination in that era.[2]

As Ughetto never really knew his grandfather, due to Luigi's death when Ughetto was only an infant, the film was based principally on stories told to Ughetto by his grandmother Cesira, Luigi's widow.[2]

Cast

[edit]

The film's voice cast includes Stefano Paganini as Luigi, Ariane Ascaride as Cesira and narration by Ughetto himself, as well as Diego Giuliani, Christophe Gatto, Laurent Pasquier, Bruno Fontaine, Angelo Rinna, Laura Devoti, Aude Carpintieri, Thierry Buenafuente, Carlo Ferrante, Gaia Saitta, Jacques Chambon, Pascal Gimenez, Moritz Korff, Martin Prill and Waléry Doumenc in supporting roles.

Production and release

[edit]

The film was produced by French Les Films du Tambour de soie, Vivement Lundi! and coproduced by Foliascope, by Belgian company Lux Fugit Film, Italian outfit Graffiti Film, Portuguese company Ocidental Filmes and Swiss outfit Nadasdy Film, with Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Cinéma, the RTS and the RTBF. It was sold by Indie Sales.[3]

The film was completed in May 2022 and premiered at the Annecy International Animated Film Festival, winning the Jury Prize for feature film and the GAN Foundation Prize. It was released in France in January 2023 and exceeded 208,000 admissions, ranking 4 at the 2023 box office. As of January 2024, the film won more than 20 awards.[4]
