Hi Nikki,
Sorry for my super delayed response but I was back in Palestine this time to have a photography exhibition. My site is http://www.valentinacaniglia.net you can see my work there.
This the explanation of my personal project supported by the General Italian Consualte in Jerusalem
NAPLES – PALESTINE
Naples-Palestine, a reportage taken in Palestine and Naples while Valentina Caniglia was working as Director of Photography in a movie.
The pictures were taken from September 2007 to March 2008. The black and white pictures express the similarities of the two cultures, the Arabic and the Parthenopaean one.
The photographs have been chosen according to a peculiar mix of lights and contrasts and they portrait the difficult daily life of those communities. They are the result of many experiences Valentina shared with the people of Palestine. Their face similarities, their similar way of living and habits, and the architecture inspired Valentina who shot portraits that express their simplicity, opposed to the difficulties they have to face in their daily life.
These images and being in Palestine allowed Valentina to reminisce her childhood in southern Italy.
Valentina Caniglia
Hi! I am an LA-based actress, producer and screenwriter. This fall I’m finishing up post-production on my first film, “Vanessa Rising,” which I wrote, produced and starred in.
We had many great women working on the project, including our director and editor, e. E. Charlton-Trujillo. In July we held a highly successful benefit for the film in LA along with a screening of “The Making of Vanessa Rising.”
The film was inspired by my own personal battles with depression and suicide, and is a short drama about a young woman who overcomes a myriad similar obstacles in her daily life. We’ve spent the last year of post-production aggressivley campaigning to raise funds for film festival submissions., and hope that with the film’s success, “Vanessa” will be able to educate and enlighten those affected by suicide and their loved ones.
Hi Rebekkah,
Do you have a website or trailer available to view more info on your film?
