Director's Statement
My experiences in directing documentary cinema have enabled me to appreciate not only the story of what is real, but also in what is real, helping me to understand how it is possible to discover the intimate and profoundly human dimension of reality, also of the pressing and current themes in today’s society. In IO SONO LI I wanted to respect the methods and styles of documentary cinema, by also working with unprofessional actors and always choosing locations in the real world. At the same time, the precision and subtleness of the language of oriental cinema, some important examples of international independent cinema and the essential collaboration with director of photography Luca Bigazzi have been important traces in order to be able to narrate the atmospheres and places I chose for this film.
