Echo Chamber - 230 - Part Four
We're now in our last slice (Part FOUR) of this week's @EchoChamberFP
Thanks to London Flair an Oscar qualified short film is the focus. Then we sit down with its director (and his translator Carlotta Galmarini) to really get into how this powerful topic became the focal point, and what it took to bring it to life!
'Tutù' is directed by Lorenzo Tiberia and written by Alberto Fumagalli & Giovanni Mauriello. A small town in southern Italy is shaken by the death of Maria La Torre (Giada Palmitessa), a very young dancer who died of anorexia. Ester (Sofia D’Elia), a classmate for whom Maria represented an ideal of beauty and talent, suffered the loss the most. As if tied by an invisible thread, Ester seems destined for the same fate as her friend.
