Director Statement

In November 2022 i was a student of the school IED in Rome, we had a homework, make a short video showing the basic rules about the cinematography, but i wanted more than an exercise, so i’ve choose to transform it in a real short film, creating it with following the time rules of the school ( we had to film it in 3 hours)..
And we did it, we’ve filmed it in those 3 hours and edited it for the following moths.
I hope that with this short film you could feel that the love for ourselves, the passion about the things we care about and the dedication that every artist puts in his works are the most the valuable things, over everything that could pull you down to sadness.
