Filmmaking for me is not only a way of expression. It’s a huge responsibility.

Luca Pirero was born in Sanremo on October 27, 1981. He studied at the Kulturama school in Stockholm, where he took courses in acting based on the Stanislavsky system and in film direction. He further expanded his skills by participating in workshops on acting methods such as Laban, Meisner, and Ivana Chubbuck techniques, as well as Meyerhold's theatrical biomechanics. He deepened his knowledge with courses and readings on dramaturgy and attended a Masterclass with actor Giancarlo Giannini and director Abel Ferrara.
Luca's formative experiences include a period as a musician and guitarist in Italy from 2001 to 2006. In 2013, he served as assistant director for the Divine performance at the 2013 Nobel Banquet in Stockholm. Also in Stockholm, he directed two theatrical comedies: "Barefoot in the Park" by Neil Simon and "Harvey" by Mary Chase.
As a film director, Luca Pirero made his debut with the short film "Isär," where he served as co-screenwriter, director, editor, and producer. During the editing phase, he had the opportunity to collaborate with renowned editor Michał Leszczyłowski, known for his work on Andrei Tarkovsky's film "Sacrifice." The main themes characterising Luca's work include the conflict between the individual and society, family dramas, and the humorous paradoxical dimension of life. Currently, he is preparing for his next film project, supported by Leszczyłowski.
