Our project

We have a new script, which has already won a best screenplay film festival award. We would like to produce this new short film «Appearance», because we are sure that it will replicate the success of the first one. The two main characters will be the same actors (Daniele Marcheggiani and Simone Passero) together with two children aged 6-8, who will be co-stars and other two actors. We can’t explain too much about the plot of film, but we can tell you that it’s about the different view between adults and children about the reality of things. The film, like the previous one, will be sent to the main international festivals, starting with Locarno Film Festival 2020 or Venice International Film Festival 2020.
