BLACK DAYS, WHITE NIGHTS.

"Black Days, White Nights" is a short fashion and art film that explores the captivating interplay of contrasts that saturate our surroundings. Through its lens, it delves into the beauty that emerges from the intermingling of light and darkness, hope and despair, and life and death.

The film acknowledges that light takes on significance only when set alongside darkness, much like hope's relevance is heightened in the presence of despair. It contemplates the role of death, recognizing it as a poignant factor that gives meaning to the journey of life itself.

Set against the backdrop of Rome, a city deeply intertwined with the Vatican and the Catholic Church, the film finds an apt stage to showcase these oppositions. With its rich history of contradictions, Rome becomes a living testament to the coexistence of opposites, where the realms of heaven and hell merge and diverge in an eternal dance of existence.
