The movies.
The icon.
Dafoe.

Luciano Ligabue
Rockstar, writer, film-maker.
Very reserved, almost shy, a little wary.
But today is a sunny day, a confortable afternoon.
We're all happy and everything is smooth.
But, let's face it: the cover shot come from the unique "click" of the light test shot.
A sincere glance, an unguarded moment.
Thanks Luciano.
