Francesco Pasinetti (1911–1949) was an Italian
documentaries. He also directed the 1934 realist feature film The Canal of the Angels set in Venice.[1] His brother was the writer Pier Maria Pasinetti
.
A native of Venice, Pasinetti attempted in the final days of the
Second World War to persuade the Allies to support making Venice the capital of the post-war Italian film industry (Venice had emerged as the centre of filmmaking in the Fascist Italian Social Republic). However, this attempt failed and production largely returned to the capital in Rome.[2]
