Never look for logic if it is not your logic

Andrei Mironov was my Virgil.
Andrei has stayed with me, not only physically, hell of the darkest human soul territories, producing a light when it was possible to understand, by turning it off when he felt it impossible to go beyond human comprehension.
Andrei I discussed many times; He was the only one who could silence me with that goes: "Dear Ferdinand, do not look for logic where you have not put you."
Andrei Mironov was killed in Sloviansk, Saturday, May 24, 2014, together with the Italian photojournalist Andy Rocchelli as they documented the armed conflict in Eastern Ukraine.
Our video diary opens just reliving firsthand the how, where and when I learned their tragic death.
The overall pace of the docu-fiction is marked by news of a journalist (played by actress Paola Sini) with material drawn from my personal photo archive and an unpublished interview with Andrei Mironov. The parallel biographical account then allows everyone to follow the usual behind the scenes, with all the reflections, certainties, doubts, the rewards for winning awards, the object of long chats on Skype with Andrei and then always ended up arming the my theatrical pen inspired stories impossible not to tell on stage like "(in) Visible signs of protest" that bound a locksmith of Auschwitz, Jan Livacz, a reporter of Chieti, Antonio Russo
I Fear of losing himself, Katia Nani plays a great friend of Anna Politkovskaya and the same Andrei, journalist Natalia Estemirova, who was killed July 15, 2009.
The final is entrusted to the vibrating vocal cords Femiano Carmen, touching interpreter of the song "Vulesse" commenting on the footage shot in Beslan a few days before the tragic death of Mironov
