from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Daniele Ciprì (born August 17, 1962 in Palermo ) is an Italian film director and cameraman .

Life

Ciprì has been working with Franco Maresco since 1986 . Her focus is on short films and contributions for the regional television station TVM . When the RAI took over their program Blob cinico TV , Maresco and Ciprì became known nationwide. It consists of 49 short films that show the conditions in the periphery of Palermo in a ruthless reality .

Her first feature film, Lo zio di Brooklyn , was just as controversial and consistent. The successor, Totò che visse due volte , an attack on religion, rarely made it to the cinemas.

In 2012 he received his first invitation to the competition at the Venice Film Festival for his feature film È stato il figlio . The work is about a modest family from Palermo whose daughter accidentally dies in a shooting. The father (played by Toni Servillo ) then struggles with accepting financial compensation for Mafia victims from the state. The film earned Ciprì an award for its cinematography and a Cinema for UNICEF Mention.

Ciprì also took part in the photography and production of films by Roberta Torres . After the turn of the millennium, he increasingly turned to work as a cameraman .
