CURRENT MISSION

Shoot our first feature film, hold our first exhibition, travel and meet inspiring people and places, teach and learn

ABOUT ME

We met and fell in love in Rome. Idan was studying cinema and arts for a few years in Bologna University and then moved to Rome to work on a documentary feature film, as an assistant director. Emanuele completed his degree in literature and afterwards dedicated himself completely to his biggest passion, photography (www.emanueletorti.it). We lived in Israel for a couple of years and now we live once more in the Eternal city.

PHILOSOPHY

We are strong believers of the well known motto: live and let live. Simple and obliged.
