00:00Loredana Enrico, ADN Kronos.
00:02Giulia, the film explores the world of porn
00:05in a time when it was becoming a mass phenomenon.
00:08How did you deal with this delicate topic
00:10and what aspects did you want to explore?
00:15I wanted to explore this arc that existed
00:19and this big difference between what was at the beginning,
00:24at the time, and what represented
00:29for these characters.
00:31More a revolution, a desire to break the taboos,
00:34to liberalize the costume.
00:40Coming from a society that was still very
00:43pro-benist of the 50s and 60s.
00:47They were Riccardo Schicchie and Lona Staller.
00:50At the beginning they were two 20-year-olds
00:53who were collecting what came from the 70s
00:59of free love and they wanted to bring it
01:03and make it a revolution.
01:07At the beginning, what they were doing
01:09was very different from what later
01:13turned into pornography.
01:16I found it extremely up-to-date as a theme.
01:21At the beginning there were no VHSs
01:26and above all they were doing a type of pornography
01:29devoid of modesty, but not violent.
01:34Instead, what gradually turned into
01:38the darker side, violent, submissive.
01:44I found it extremely interesting
01:47and above all I wanted to open a debate
01:50about this, because it still speaks to us today.
01:53It's a problem we have in the contemporary world,
01:56above all, as you said, how the diffusion
01:59has changed, both the typology and the diffusion
02:03of pornography.
02:05Now everyone has access to pornography,
02:08it's a pillar within society.
02:13The numbers tell us that boys have
02:16the first contact with pornography at the age of 12,
02:21and that 90% of pornography
02:24shows scenes of violence against women.
02:30So the real question is why
02:33we have to create an identification,
02:35a moment of immediate action,
02:38offering these extremely negative models
02:43that inevitably have an impact
02:45on our society.
02:46What is the message you hope to convey?
02:48This.
02:50Keeping in mind that you can be amoral,
02:55but not immoral.
02:58So, Riccardo Schicchi,
03:01I did a very in-depth research
03:05and I collected a lot of testimonies,
03:09and all the testimonies depicted
03:13the character that I portrayed on stage.
03:17Finding a character with this
03:21enthusiastic character,
03:25without modesty, but at the same time
03:28respectful of people, kind.
03:31He is a person who has helped many people,
03:35he was not attached to money,
03:37he never got rich,
03:39but he had this desire to live,
03:44he lived the life he wanted,
03:46in a free way,
03:47even operating within
03:49a completely illegal system.
03:51Because porn itself is illegal,
03:55the battle of principles he fought
03:58went against legality,
04:02he made these girls come from Hungary
04:04to do it without permission,
04:06so the fact of finding
04:09a person with principles and his own ethics
04:13within pornography,
04:15which, however, operated
04:17breaking the rules and against the law,
04:21because for him, in principle,
04:23he did no harm to anyone and it was right,
04:25I found it extremely interesting.
04:31He is a bit of a character,
04:33as they call him,
04:34he is bigger than life, I found him.
04:37He was an element of great charm.
