“Monica” Interview with Andrea Pallaoro and Eleonora Granata-Jenkinson
“The impetus to make this film was better to understand the consequences and complexities of the theme of abandonment, which I have dealt with in my own life, and which is something that I recognize is at the center of most of my creative explorations,” says Italian-born director and writer Andrea Pallaoro, talking about his latest film, Monica, about to be seen in competition at the Venice Film Festival. Pallaoro's work as a filmmaker focuses primarily on the exploration of women's feelings and emotional journeys.
