-When you plan the realization of a film project, what are your objectives?
I always aim to explore social issues and convey meaningful messages without overwhelming the audience during the viewing experience. Regardless of the genre I work in — from comedy to drama — I believe classical storytelling should blend seamlessly with experimental elements.
-With Artificial Intelligence, cinema is undergoing a phase of transformation even more radical than the one that occurred in the 1920s with the transition from silent films to sound. What is your opinion on this?
Cinema has always been capable of reinventing itself, embracing technological evolution and making it part of its own language. In my view, artificial intelligence should primarily serve as a tool of support rather than replacing traditional cinema altogether. At the same time, in certain forms of storytelling, it can become an alternative to more classical techniques.
What remains essential, however, is the human element: without a deep understanding of cinematic rules and film language, it is impossible to create a meaningful AI-driven project from scratch. Human creativity, vision, and artistic sensitivity will therefore continue to be unique and fundamental in this new era of cinema.
-To which production or distribution company would you like to propose your new project? Give us a profile, including some examples.
I aim to present this project to a company that is open to innovation, one that has moved beyond outdated frameworks and does not exclude the intelligent use of AI. I don’t have a specific company in mind yet, but I am particularly interested in international production or distribution companies. In the United States and Asia, AI is rapidly gaining ground and becoming increasingly influential in the industry.
-WILD FILMMAKER can now “sit at the table with the big players” alongside The Hollywood Reporter and Variety during the Cannes Film Festival, but we have chosen to continue being a Global Cultural Movement with an ethical mission: to bring democracy into cinema, placing the Work of Art at the center of our project rather than Marketing.
Do you think we are doing a good job?
Throughout my career, I have taken part in several national and international festivals, as well as side events during the Venice Film Festival. I also participated in the Cannes 7 Art Awards 2025 section last year, with the award ceremony held at Marche Film during the Cannes Film Festival. Through these experiences, I have become familiar with various markets and international festival environments.
What Wild Filmmaker does is unique, as it offers a genuine exploration of the independent, experimental, and artistic landscape of both Italian and international cinema, presenting it in an accessible way with what is likely a distinctive style.
I’m not sure whether the right moment has come to move toward a more marketing-driven approach or to organize a physical event with marketing at its core. It is difficult to say. However, I don’t believe anything is impossible: if the same boldness used in this globally oriented, unconventional version were applied to a more traditional format, it could still make sense and remain original in its own right.
