Il Valzer delle Nuvole

Carmine De Martino

___________________ SYNOPSIS Michele, a young pianist, composes music sitting at the piano. It's a dark night and after the final adjustments to the score, he starts to play again. We find him on the street, in a deserted village, wandering aimlessly until he finds a girl. The latter leads him in an improvised waltz before starting a "white night" ... But, who is the Girl? ...or, maybe, "what" is the Girl? What happens between the two takes place on a thin line between dream and reality, but can dreams remain closed in the drawer? ___________________ DIRECTOR STATEMENT "Il Valzer delle Nuvole" this is the title of the short film that saw me for the first time author and director.

It was shot in just two nights, during the Social World Film Festival (as required by the rules) by my crew: Antonio Porcaro and Tiziana Miccio. Yes, the short film was shot, edited and finalized by us in just three days! Even the music.
