Born in 1990 and growing up in Pinzolo, a small town on the Italian Dolomites, Emanuele has always been attracted to the dark and gothic due to a childhood spent in the ancient forests around his town, where, legend says, witches and demons are confined.  He graduated from the London Film School’s MA Filmmaking course with a Distinction, where he has edited and directed several short films, including his graduation film 'Croste di Polenta' that has just won the award for Best Student Film at the Rome Independent Film Festival 2018. Emanuele is currently working as an editor and he is in the writing process of his first feature film, an historical horror story set on the Alps.
