INTERVIEW WITH GABRIELE FABBRO

"I TELL THE STORY OF MUSIC. I believe a score is not just an accompaniment to the visual. As a director I’m fighting against this stereotypical conception. Each composition carries its own sincere story to tell. My job is to translate those notes into a script."

IL SOGNO AMERICANO DEL CARATESE GABRIELE FABBRO

"L’immediatezza visiva penso arrivi dalla storia dell’arte, dalla bellezza dei posti meravigliosi che ci sono in Italia, che abituano l’occhio a ragionare in termini di luci e colori."

MEET GABRIELE FABBRO OF G&F PICTURES IN BURBANK

Our job as directors is to make people feel, no matter what the budget is. A great director is always that carpenter that knows how to build grand things out of small things. It has never been the opposite.

GABRIELE FABBRO:

CINEMA IS A LIE BUT I LOVE IT

We are missing magic in the world, and we need to bring it back with the aid of cinema. It's such a beautiful thing to fall in love with an ideal character. It's the matter of taking a realistic scenario and making it special; sometimes it's the camera, sometimes it's the characters, but it has to feel special. We need that.

SHORT FILM REVIEW

Shooting pool hasn't been this intense since The Hustler. Gabriele Fabbro's short film 8 is a stylish and thrilling tale of a pool player hoping to find redemption, loaded with brilliant camera trickery and an engulfing atmosphere.
