Why the choice of cinema?
Today’s communication uses more and more often, if not almost exclusively, images, as told by social media and entertainment contents such as the tv series. The expedient of the story has not abandoned the written or oral form. More simply it has been enriched, thanks to cinema and the audio-visual, and today, for the times in which we live, it has become hybrid. In fact, disciplines are intertwined and the audio-visual has put together writing, the dynamics of the scenes, the dialogues, photography, art, the willing and studied use of colours and shaped and then the specific story, the content and the message conveyed.
If you tell a story, then everything changes.
