Caruso
The visual artwork "Caruso" is a tribute to great tenor Enrico Caruso and worldwide famous Italian contemporary singer Lucio Dalla. We shot this short film in the same hotel where Enrico Caruso survived to 1906 San Francisco big earthquake (The Palace Hotel). In the last scene you will see the ill Caruso and his very young lover singer student, who discovers he is leaving San Francisco for coming back in Naples to die in his beloved country, talking in Sutro baths ruins. The baths survived to the big earthquake, but unfortunately a fire destroyed it years later. We just liked to imagine that place was a wonderful place for talking about love and for dying. The director intention was not to create a narrative story, but the whole film is conceived as a wonderful old taste picture showed with an astonishing background music.
