The story of an old actor and a life full of regrets,
told by his thoughts during a melancholic evening, through the flaming
light of a fireplace which illuminates the gloomy soul of a man on the
edge... like a purifying confession to the loved one, who looks at him,
sadly, without saying a word.
"This short film is inspired by a real story, and many famous actors,
reading the script, have found something moving and to identify
themselves with. I'm also convinced that the actor who has inspired me,
was not the only one in the category of 'angels and demons'; even if
many, among them, don't feel the conflict inside and are free of
obsessions. Whoever cannot make it, will explode. Anyway." (F.R. Del
Sette)
