Nino Bizzarri first started studying architecture, with the idea of
becoming a production designer. After meeting Roberto Rossellini and working with
him as an assistant on Jahr Eins (1974) he realized directing was what he really
wanted to do. He started writing as a film critic on "Rivista del
cinematografo" and in 1978 he directed an experimental semi-short film
for RAI, called "Cantar di tempi oscuri". Since 1997 he's been mostly
working as director/author of documentaries for RAI
International.
