The Essential List: Leone
The C 41 / K48 director and photographer lives for his Minox camera, Fellini’s filmmaking and pasta sprinkled with fish roe
Leone is a film director and photographer. He was born in the land that gave birth to Madonna, Gabriele D’Annunzio and Rocco Siffredi - Abruzzo - but these days lives and works in Milan, where he runs the production house K48, which he co-founded in 2007, and its sister creative studio C 41.
He started his career making music videos for artists such as Elisa, Tiromancino, Eros Ramazzotti, Planet Funk, Mauro Pagani and Nicola Arigliano and soon moved onto commercials and short films such as 'Una splendida giornata', 'Cache Cache' and 'Sul Tram'.
We knew he’d have good tastes and his Essential List’s proved us right.
