„Johnnie To is downstairs, having a cigar”. The story of an interview I never expected to happen
Sometime around midnight, on one evening of a late, rainy April. I’m walking through the narrow streets of Udine, an (obviously) picturesque hamlet in northern Italy, home to Far East Film Festival, one of the biggest events in Europe dedicated to Asian cinema. The rain has just stopped and the late night has brought in a discreet euphoria, along with the sluggishness that follows a long day filled with four films and a couple of panels.
Graduated with a BA in film directing and a MA in film studies from UNATC; she's also studied history of art. Also collaborates with the Acoperisul de Sticla film magazine and is a former coordinator of FILM MENU. She's dedicated herself to '60-'70s Japanese cinema and Irish post-punk music bands. Still keeps a picture of Leslie Cheung in her wallet.
