Ofelia
A very intimate project, conceived and directed during the first lockdown by director Bigazzi. It represents an urge and a need for storytelling. The protagonist, as the title suggests, is Ofelia Borgheresi, the director's grandmother and the living memory of her entire family. Pierfrancesco captured in twelve minutes the fleeting essence of memories that fade away, together with the bittersweet longing for time that will remain in those who will be left behind.
