SALVATION IS WITHIN YOU | Short Film
Production Design

Finalist, Russo Brothers Italian American Filmmakers Forum @abgofilms

Set in the run-up to the infamous Sacco and Vanzetti trial of the 1920s, Salvation Is Within You! is a historical thriller that follows two brothers down the path of political radicalism just as the government tightens its grip on their Italian immigrant community.

The key to the project was taking advantage of some really excellent locations.

The production team initially contacted @shorelinetrolleymuseum to source a period trolley, but during the scout I was struck by how much more the museum had to offer. We ultimately used the train yard for both the brothers’ worksite and the film’s final chase scene.

Finding the Salieri family home was surprisingly tricky. Just days before shooting, a large house built in 1905 became available. It was beautiful, but far too grand for the story. Almost as an afterthought, we went up to the attic and found two small rooms that appeared to have been servants’ quarters. They were perfect. I kept the dressing minimal and let the shape and texture of the rooms do the heavy lifting.

Stills & visuals from “12 Weeks”!

With every shot, I really wanted the camera to feel as intimate and uncomfortable as the relationship at the center of the film, written by @dylannacarelliofficial while leaning into the quiet moments, and intimacy between the characters

i can only tag 20 people, and i could barelyyyy narrow the photos down, but so many more folks than are even in this carousel were involved in helping me alchemize such a wonderful first year. i love being in this city, and i love being an artist. it has been hard in a lot of moments, but so deeply rewarding.

on stage, on the page, and beyond—my dreams are coming true, one step at a time ✨ so incredibly grateful to everyone and everything that has led me to this magnificent place. my home 🤍 can’t wait to see what year two has in store. time absolutely flies. 😭

Tutto è iniziato quando ero bambino e guardavo i film di James Dean con mio nonno Remo. L’ultimo film che abbiamo visto insieme è stato Il Gigante, proprio con James Dean.

Qualche mese fa ero a New York. Avevo appena scoperto, dopo un’audizione, di aver ottenuto il ruolo da protagonista in uno spettacolo teatrale.

Quella notte, verso le due, presi il copione e andai a camminare per Central Park, ripetendo le battute per impararle.
 Sapevo che James Dean aveva vissuto poco distante da lì, così decisi di finire la mia camminata sui gradini del suo palazzo.

Seduto lì, iniziai a parlare con Gesù. Gli chiesi se fosse possibile entrare in quel palazzo, anche solo per vedere la porta dell’appartamento di James.

Tornai su quei gradini altre sette/otto volte, alla fine delle mie passeggiate notturne passate a studiare il copione.
Poi arrivò la mia ultima sera a New York.

Ero a Central Park con Diletta, l’altra attrice protagonista dello spettacolo.
Avevo con me la mia Rolleiflex e mi venne in mente di portarla a vedere il palazzo dove abitava James.
Arrivati lì facemmo qualche foto.

Poi le dissi: “Provo a suonare qualche campanello, magari qualcuno ci apre e riusciamo almeno a vedere l’interno del palazzo.”

Nessuno rispose.

Stavamo per andarcene quando vedemmo due signore venire verso di noi.
 Chiesi loro: “Scusate, abitate in questo palazzo? So che qui viveva James Dean e mi piacerebbe tantissimo poterlo vedere all’interno.”
Loro, sorridendo, ci dissero:

“Noi abitiamo nell’appartamento di James Dean.”

Ci fecero salire.

Entrai nell’appartamento in cui aveva vissuto James. Vidi e toccai i suoi libri, Il Piccolo Principe, i libri di Shakespeare sui quali studiava e persino una sua maglietta.

Poi ci portarono sul tetto.
Mi sedetti nello stesso luogo in cui James Dean aveva studiato il copione de Il Gigante.
 Lo stesso film che avevo visto per l’ultima volta insieme a mio nonno.

Poi siamo partiti in tour in Sicilia con lo spettacolo teatrale.
Arrivati al settimo teatro, aprii la porta e trovai un poster gigante con James Dean che mi guardava.

In quel momento sono tornato bambino.

Lo stesso bambino che guardava i film con il nonno e ascoltava le sue storie.
