I am delighted to announce that my short film The Coltrane Code has already been selected for its first international festival!
It is competing at the Visioni Corte Film Festival to be held at the Minturno Castle 6-10 October 2015. I am very proud of having been selected for the final, especially as this festival has just won the award for Best Italian Short Film Festival, the “Silver Frame – Festival dei Festival”.
I always say “This is the last chance to see Midsommar on a big screen” and then… it’s not! I am delighted this small film continues to live beyond its expected term, and Lecce is such a spectacular place… thanks to the organizers of the CoolClub to have selected it for the show “Il cinema e la luna” at the Ammirato Culture House!
And I am also very proud that this screeshot from Midsommar was selected to illustrate the whole event!
Andrea Chimenti‘s new album YURI is finally due for tomorrow and I am delighted for many reasons, even personal, as I wrote the lyrics of the only English song contained, “A Sweet Fall”. But I am especially delighted about the beauty of this album, produced by Andrea’s son Francesco Chimenti, a devastating talent, with his equally skilled band mate Davide Andreoni, and recorded and mixed by amazing Stefano Amerigo Santoni, who all play in Italy’s most emerging post rock band, the Sycamore Age.
A visual artist that I love, Sara Zanoni, prepared the 10 teasers of this album, which you can see all together at the link below. Enjoy!
