Director Biography - Valerio Dalla Ragione

Born in 1995, from Tuscany, but currently living in Copenhagen, where I'm studying business.
Before cinema, literary fiction and music were my main passions. I have been composing for piano for about 10 years, and have published three novels so far.
My first encounter with cinema has been as an actor in short movies ("Me and My Shadow", "Off Limits", by A. Sugaks), and helping with soundtracks.
"FERSU" is my first attempt as a script writer and director.
