Logline: In Bologna, food becomes a way to connect people from different backgrounds and cultures.
I don’t seek easy stories,
I seek fractures, conflicts, and shadows in society’s blind spots.
I portray people at the moment they begin to crack,
flawed characters wandering in search of answers that do not exist.
I explore their failings through unconventional narrative choices and an expressive use of light.
I believe in transformative cinema:
cinema that unsettles, challenges,
and leaves a mark — just like life itself.
