Picture yourself venturing in a 1911 western small town and just a minute after inside a Nevada typical farmhouse, finally materializing, as if by magic, in the midst of a Christopher Priest’s story. You are not dreaming: you are simply putting in the shoes of the young Italian set designer Alessandro Marvelli, who was entrusted with the realization of the movie-sets of the Joseph Matarrese’s independent film “American Homestead” and of the medium-length film about magic
“The Stooge”, of the Uruguayan director Rogelio Fojo.
