The Anniversary.
Today, Rosa celebrates the anniversary of her engagement with Roberto. While she waits for him for dinner, she spends the afternoon in the pool with her younger brother Angelo. They begin to comment on a news story happened a few days earlier: the body of a boy found in a field a few kilometres from the city. Roberto arrives before they expected: the glances between the three become enigmatic and restless.
Director.
Born in Bucharest in 1994, in 2016 he moved to Italy, where, in 2018, he began collaborating with the international sales agency The Open Reel. He wrote several subjects, one of which later became the screenplay for a short he also directed in 2020: It’s Just in My Head, starring Claudio Segaluscio and Carmine Fabbricatore, selected at almost 50 international film festivals and distributed in DVD and VOD in several territories. He has just finished his second short film entitled The Anniversary.
