ABSTRACT

The main conversation with Roberto took place over three days in June 2001. His career started through serendipity with Orson Welles, he matured as an editor with Bernardo Bertolucci and has cut for the Taviani Brothers for many years. We talked in his apartment in Rome where he lives with his wife Annalisa and their twin daughters.

I can’t say how important the figure of my father was because he died when I was very little – I was five years old, but I remember perfectly that the house was full of photo machines, because he was a photographer. I realised after where my passion for images and photography came from.
