PORFIRIO

Porphire was a philosopher, theologian and astrologer... his name means "red like purple".
Porphyria is the disease of which those who suffer from it, if exposed to sunlight, burn and urinate purple... an illness from which it is thought that the beliefs about vampires.
Marginalization, anger and loneliness are some of the feelings that this short film tells, masterfully interpreted by a young debuting actor without the aid of words and set in an ancient Vercelli castle
A "style" exercise that seeks to describe, through empathy, the effects of isolation.
