I just finished watching “Once“, a low budget irish movie that had a huge box-office success last year (the main song, Falling Slowly, got an Oscar).

Even though it’s after 2 am here in Tokyo, I wanted to briefly share my impressions (will try to wright something longer later, though nothing can replace watching it).

Intimate, delightful, happy, sad, vivid, delicate, a story about normal people (actually the actors aren’t so but musicians). Full with lovable small details. How often do you find the right person? (the movie’s tagline).

Trailer:

In this strange period of “pre-sabbatical”, I’m doing a lot of interesting things… Last weekend, national holiday in Italy, we made a videoclip with an italian band (Ottavo Richter) that plays the Tibetan anthem. This is part of the “friends of Pangea Day Milano” initiative I’m part of, in which a country plays the anthem of another (eg. UK plays Argentina).

What a more intimate thing than the anthem of a country? Pangea Day wants to unite people, through film but not only.

The video was made with the Pangea Day Milano team (MGM Digital Communication, Maria Grazia, Cristinaand me), Stalker Video (Francesco and Daniele), Macchinazioni Teatrali (Franco and Barbara), Regia (Tommi), AiEP (Claudio), Benedetta and Andrea.
