ARRIVEDERCI PARIS
One evening, in a luxurious building in the centre of Paris, an armed woman bursts into the apartment of Adriano Rizzo, an actor who exploits his status to abuse young
actresses. Later, the mysterious woman reveals her identity: Hélène de Saint-Amand, owner of the apartment. She intends to kill him to put an end to his sexual assaults.
She thinks she has the perfect plan to make people believe that the death is suicide by poisoning. But what she doesn’t know is that everything will be filmed. Hélène de Saint-Amand kills her tenant, disguising the crime as suicide, and leaves the
apartment. The same day, Mehdi, Adriano’s son, flees to Tuscany with a young Italian woman - they are deeply in love. At the same time, a restaurant chef realises his dream of seducing one of his employees. All the characters crossing paths with each other that particular day are linked - like Giulia Damiani, who worked for Adrian Rizzo - she goes to his apartment the next morning. There she finds the body of the dead actor on the sofa and immediately sees that his death was not suicide, as people had been led to believe. In a mask she finds a hidden camera, used by Adriano to film everything. She takes the recording and returns home, but does not call the police. That evening, she wonders if she should go to the police after all, or demand money to keep quiet. The next day, Giulia phones Hélène de Saint-Amand, who, if she does not want to die in prison, has no choice but to agree to Giulia’s proposal. With this money, Giulia will be able to make her great dream come true - to travel to Argentina to put flowers on the grave of Diego Maradona. Before taking the plane to Buenos Aires, she asks a friend to take the camera with the recording of Hélène de Saint-Amand’s murder of Adriano Rizzo to the police. Yet again, crime does not pay

Biography de L.S. Bellanti
Of Sicilian origin, Louis Salvatore Bellanti was born in Lorraine. He grew up in the decor of the factories where his father Giuseppe was a worker. From this childhood,
he keeps beautiful memories. In the housing project, where he lives, the coexistence 2 between immigrants of all nationalites is harmonious. Sincere friendship are tied. It’s
at the Festival of Italian cinema in Villerupt, created for the important italian community, that he experiences his first emotions as a cinephile. The movies of
Ettore Scola, Franco Brusati and Dino Risi are a delight to him. This is when his passion for writing was born. Each year in Villerupt, he attends conferences of great
italian directors he is sometimes lucky to meet. These particular days will encourage him to write his first film script. At the age of 22, encouraged by a journalist friend, reader of his first writings, he goes to Paris and takes theater classes with John Strasberg. He will then get various TV and cinema parts. He will also take part into theater plays, particularly at the Comédie Française. In parallel to his work as an
actor, he writes his first script, Johnny Monroe, TV fiction of an hour and a half broadcasted by France 3, as well as one episode, Le Studio, for the Intrigue series
broadcasted on TF1. With a passion for detective novels, he publishes about fifteen novels in France and in Italy. In 2022, Louis Salvatore Bellanti writes and directs his
first short film entitled Arrivederci Paris
