Zita Sempri

At first watch, even for the casual observers who haven't followed up on the story behind this short film, you're encapsulated by the views and landscapes the film brings forward. The cinematography brings the setting to life and does justice to the director's vision of making it a personal watch that pulls at the heartstrings and makes every second worth the watch. Stefania made sure the short film keeps you captivated and ensured that the camera caught the little details that speak a thousand words. If you've been keeping up with the short film, fans will know that it's a personal story to the director, Stefania Spampinato's life, and the feelings which come with telling your story are so vividly described you're left with tears by the end. Her voiceover has to be the cherry on top of the cake for me, such a calming presence that makes you want to rewatch the short film constantly. Stefania opened and poured her heart out to the world via Zita Sempri and it couldn't have been an easy thing to do, yet despite it all she brought the love story to life and gave us all a whole different meaning to pure love. The film carries sensitive details and highlights the importance of a mother daughter relationship. None of which could have been possible with our favourite Director, Miss Spampinato. Forever proud of her and so glad the world gets to see her artistic vision through her lens.

This short is incredible, it tells such a beautiful story of a mother and daughter. You can tell it comes from a place of love and emotion, the message behind it is so heartbreakingly true. It's been treated with such care and passion and truly encapsulates how it feel to be so far away from the people you love. The letters play such a key part on the meaning, and an important message of never forgetting who you are regardless of the relationships and friendships you find yourself in. I hope to see more of Stefania Spampinato behind the camera. This truly is Stefania's love letter from herself to her Sicily and her mamma <3.

It's an amazing short. The writing is incredible and everything about it is so beautifully made. It connects directly with the public thanks to an unreal camera work that makes you feel part of the story. Even though I've seen people discredit the photography, I think it is one of the main reasons why the short feels so personal. The way everything is shown helps you understand the relationship between Stefania and her mother on a deeper level. It shows you how little and grown Stefania saw the world, and that is a very difficult thing to do in a 10 min short. It is truly magical, moving and heart-warming.
