The Earl, His Lover, the Escort and Her Brother

Anthony Ashley-Cooper, 10th Earl of Shaftesbury, was one of Britain's wealthiest men, a scion of a historic family whose assets included grand properties in the UK and France, a 9,000-acre estate, and works of art worth tens of millions of pounds. Anthony split his time between his ancestral family home in Dorset and the French Riviera, where he enjoyed a hedonistic lifestyle of drink, drugs, and sex, all funded by his multi-million-pound inheritance. When in France, the earl met Jamila M-Barek through an escort agency, and when she claimed to be pregnant by him in 2002, they married, making her the third Countess of Shaftesbury. Their relationship, however, grew strained, and they separated. In 2004, the earl asked for a divorce after meeting Nadie Orche, a club hostess and young mother of two. Shortly after, the earl disappeared, and the press speculated that the Mafia had abducted him and forced him to hand over his wealth.

Dear Pirandello, you're wrong!

A man walks in a wasteland...again.Welcome to Città Sant'Angelo, one of the most beautiful villages in Italy, located in the enchanting region of Abruzzo. In this short film, we will explore the charming streets, picturesque views, and breathtaking panoramas of this magical place. Through a game of hide-and-seek, we will reveal its hidden beauties, showing how this picturesque town responds to a literary critique from a bygone era. Luigi Pirandello, a renowned Italian playwright and writer, wrote the novella "Notte" (Night) after a brief stay as a professor at the Istituto Magistrale Bertrando Spaventa during state exams. In it, he did not describe the Abruzzo village in the best light. This visual journey combines tradition and modernity, art and nature, in an affectionate response to Pirandello's words.
