Ferdinando Scianna. The Photographer of Shadow

Ferdinando Scianna, one of Italy's foremost photographers and storytellers, now in his eighties, looks back on a life shaped by extraordinary encounters — from writer Leonardo Sciascia to Magnum co-founder Henri Cartier-Bresson, from Jorge Luis Borges to his native Sicily and the town of Bagheria. Weaving personal memory with collective history, Roberto Andò's documentary portrays a master of light and shadow, a member of the Magnum agency, accompanied by testimonies from friends and companions across a lifetime in Italian culture.
