ABOUT ME / CHI SONO
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.
Salve a tutti!
mi chiamo Paolo Bertola e ho iniziato a interessarmi di cinema fin da quando ancora non tenevo la penna mano. Disegnavo, scrivevo, fantasticavo…mi affascinava il fatto di poter dar vita a mondi e a personaggi di fantasia e mi entusiasmava poterli far vivere in avventure che in verità avrei voluto vivere io. Dopo molti anni di lavoro sono riuscito a fare quello che fin da bambino sognavo...lavorare nel cinema, fare il regista. Oggi se mi guardo attorno, l'esser riuscito a coronare questo sogno mi
fa sentire una persona molto fortunata, perche ritengo che alla base di una vita sana e serena ci debba essere un obiettivo, un forte interesse per qualcosa, qualunque cosa sia, l'importante è riuscire a portarla avanti e riuscire a viverci..in ogni senzo, senza troppi compromessi o rinunce. In questo sito potrete vedere
i miei lavori e i miei collaboratori senza i quali oggi non sarei qui a scrivervi.
Buona visione.
