The story behind the film

“Medusa” comes as a continuity of a personal project about alternative sports and art of movement. My project consists in doing portraits of unconventional athletes and their sport while establishing a parallel with hated or underrated mythological character. Through a free personal re-interpretation of the myths, my aim is to bring to light unknown or feared practices in a modern and positive way.
