ABOUT ME
Hello everyone!
My name is Paolo Bertola and my interest in cinema started a long time ago, when I was so young I couldn't even write my name. Growing up I have always been drawing, writing, imagining... I was fascinated thinking about giving life to new worlds, populated by fantastic characters and I was excited thinking I could make them live the adventures I wanted to live. After many years spent working hard, I succeeded in realizing what I dreamt as a kid: working in cinema, becoming a director. Today, when I look around me, I feel very lucky for having succeeded in making my dream come true. I strongly believe that the basis for a good, serene life is having an objective, a strong interest for something, whatever it is. What is important is to insist, to carry it on and to live with it… in every sense, without too many compromises or sacrifices. In this site you can see my works and meet my staff, without whom now I couldn't be here writing to you.
Enjoy the show.
