Director Biography - Paolo Hanzo

Paolo Morretta aka Paolo Hanzo (born January 2, 1996) is an Italian director, screenwriter, editor and cinematographer
In 2020, Alièn, his first short film, was presented at the Giffoni Film Festival with the singer-songwriter Francesca Monte.
Paolo approached audiovisual creation at the age of eleven. When he was five years old he got fascinated by the magic of "Harry Potter’’, which marked his huge imagination as well as the way of approaching art and life in general.
He has always been deeply affected by the Oriental style, the purity and aesthetics that exist in the flowers of the gardens of Kyoto.
He combines the experimental use of the camera with the spiritual narration of the story told through symbolism, theatricality, seduction and chromatic alterations.
Expert in the music industry, Hanzo collaborates with the Argentinian artist Lowchano: they blend musical notes with images, giving life to a new artistic expression.
