Angelo Orlando was born in Salerno, Italy. Scriptwriter, director and actor. He had his real breakthrough in 1990 when Fellini gave him the role of Nestore in his last movie La voce della Luna, and the following year, in Massimo Troisi's film I Thought It Was Love, for which he won the David di Donatello award as best supporting actor. He went on ...
The most absurd thing that could happen to a comic actor around the end of the eighties was the dressing room door opening and Fellini coming in to congratulate him. I was living that exact absurd thing. But there was a little problem... I didn't know that man was Fellini.

And one day you understand that cinema has become your life. And when you're alone, you sometimes think about your mentors and about the people that have influenced you and infused you with their passion and love for art and life.

A filmmaker is a searcher and he needs to be surrounded by men and women who are similar to him - Those who intimately feel a deep connection with a part of them that is tightly bonded to this spirit of freedom.
