Director Statement

This project was realized by two peoples only, because the need to tell the truth is strong and seeing that in the world many peoples were betrayed and misstreatened was enough to make this work. With the help of a friend and some peoples that wanted to tell their pain, their suffrance and their truth, never heard, we want to say that democracy means that everyone has the right to know, to talk and not to be discriminated, even if choosing something that is not meanstream about it's own life and body. The Veil of Maya tells us about experiences and peoples during and after the pandemic until today situation , someone who chooose to be different and have to right to choose da different way. The film has an intimate personal approach, nevertheless social too, with the voice of a rapper that is the voice of the director too, collecting meantime diverse voices: the less and most heard, considering criticism and consequences at a certain distance from that period, jumpig from Rome - Italy - to Mexico City, giving a rythm to dramatic and also surprisingly entairtainment moments .
We will be very grateful if you will choose to show this and if people will see it.
