CGiii Comment

Give it time...and then, be prepared to be blown away!

Very few directors can change the pace of a film so many times, in such a short space of time and it continues to flow effortlessly.

Fantastic performances, fabulous score...and then, there's that scene.

Talent and skill, on show, for all the world to see!

"E vissero" is a colorful and lively short film about asking uncomfortable questions in a daft and funny way. It depicts a conversation between two boys, Merry (21) and Happy (23), during which they explore the themes of freedom, prejudice and social scrutiny.
