My name is Riccardo, an Italian filmmaker with a fervent passion for psychological horror and science fiction. Growing up amidst the enchanting ambiance of Rome, my love for cinema took root, driving me to share my unique vision with audiences around the world.
After completing my education in Rome, I made a decisive move twenty years ago, crossing the Atlantic to the United States. This transition was fueled by an unwavering ambition to carve out a distinct identity as a director within the dynamic landscape of American cinema.
In the U.S., my dedication to filmmaking led to the creation of thought-provoking short films that have captivated audiences globally. These projects have been crucial stepping stones towards my ultimate goal: producing a feature film that delves into the realms of psychological horror and science fiction, exploring the darkest corners of the human psyche and the boundless possibilities of the future.
My work has garnered accolades from prestigious film festivals worldwide, affirming my ability to craft narratives that challenge and engage the mind. As a director, my mission is to illuminate the complex and often unsettling aspects of our shared experiences, provoking discussions that push boundaries and encourage deeper reflection.
Recognized for their intense depth, artistic vision, and intellectual engagement, my films strive to connect with audiences on a profound level. I am fortunate to bridge two worlds, drawing inspiration from the rich heritage of Italian cinema and the innovative spirit of American filmmaking.
Recently, I returned to Rome, bringing with me the wealth of experiences and insights gained from my time in California. Since my return, I have had the extraordinary privilege of working as a First Assistant Director for the esteemed Maestro Pupi Avati. This collaboration has been a pivotal chapter in my career, further honing my craft and reinforcing my commitment to cinematic excellence.
Join me on this exhilarating journey as we venture into the realms of psychological horror and science fiction, exploring the intricate complexities of the human mind and the vast unknown of the future. Together, let's push the boundaries of storytelling and uncover the profound depths of our shared human experience.
