The 2025 Cinematic Motor Fest in Italy will feature an exclusive screening of “Ulysse”, a documentary film of 2018 EuroNASCAR OPEN champion Ulysse Delsaux.
“Ulysse”, the documentary film chronicling Ulysse Delsaux’s journey in EuroNASCAR, is going to receive a special screening in the 2025 Cinematic Motor Fest at Tecnopolo Reggiane in Reggio Emilia, Italy.
“Ulysse” tells the story of how Ulysse Delsaux battled his high-functioning autism to achieve his dream of becoming a NASCAR Euro Series champion, a title bestowed to him when he won the 2018 Elite 2 (current-day EuroNASCAR OPEN) title.
Cinematic Motor Fest is described through its official website as an “unique cinematic event designed to celebrate the meeting between the world of cinema and the world of motors”.
For the 2025 edition, three films are set to be screened in Tecnopolo Reggiane. “Ulysse” is listed as the second film to be screened, scheduled for 15 November 2025 at 21:00 local time.
Joining “Ulysse” in the list of films screened are Stefano Mordini’s “Race for Glory: Audi vs Lancia”, starring “Rush” star Daniel Bruhl, and DreamWorks’ “Turbo”.
The event also features an exclusive in-depth look to the “Il Privato” book, which chronicles Jon Ekerold’s story to become the 1980 350cc world champion as a privateer MotoGP entry.
Delsaux himself will be present to help showcase his documentary film. He will be joined by SpeedHouse teammate Arianna Casoli, who is a native of Reggio Emilia.
“I’m truly happy that the Cinematic Motor Fest will be screening Ulysse for the first time in Italy,” Delsaux said to World of EuroNASCAR.
“I’ll also be there in person on the evening of the screening, where — before the film — I’ll be on stage together with Arianna Casoli to answer questions from the audience and introduce the film.”
“This event is particularly meaningful to me, as it allows me to continue sharing my journey in motorsport while fostering the connections and opportunities needed to keep my racing programs moving forward.”
Delsaux also thanked Casoli for her role in allowing “Ulysse” to be screened in her home region’s motorsport film festival.
“I want to thank the Cinematic Motor Fest organizers for including the film in this year’s program, and of course Milgram and director Arthur Sauvadon.”
“A special thanks also goes to Arianna Casoli, who made the connection between the event organizers and myself possible.”
“I truly hope this additional moment of visibility for the film — and for the themes it explores — will serve as an inspiration to all those who, every day, face mountains that to most may not seem so hard to climb.”
