The short film "Deep Pockets, Empty Hearts" is ready to watch and it's gone public, that means you can share it with all your friends, relatives and followers!
I want to say how grateful I am for your patience with it. I know it's been a long time, in fact many of you have asked me about it recently and I thought of sending a note, together with the film to be enjoyed wherever you want. I look forward to hearing all your feedbacks too. We wouldn't have made it without your contributions!
It's been a fantastic but endless journey and we were lucky for still being able to film during the pandemic. Not only that. The whole post-production was made remotely while in lockdown and it certainly didn't help speeding up the process...
...but we made it! I am honoured to let you know that the film was selected and awarded quite a few prizes in the festival circuit. Here's the list ---->

Now, I hope you enjoy the film and I am always available to chat about it, hear your thoughts. Please, feel free to send notes and get in touch, we love constructive feedbacks and we know there's always room for improvement.
The team and I loved making this film and, even though it's been a long time and our skills have upgraded a lot since then, I am still proud of our result. It's a little gem that reminds us to stop and look inside when we can't find our way. When everything seems slipping and time runs fast I love to go back to DPEH because it reminds me to slow down and that not everyone is destined to the same things.
Follow this link to watch the film and feel free to share with anyone.
With Love,
Alessia Francischiello
