Fabrizio Corona: I am news is directed by Massimo Cappello and written with Marzia Maniscalco. «Our objective was not to judge the character, nor to absolve the man, but to investigate the borderlands: between good and evil, between reality and fiction» explained the authors. «We didn’t just want to document the facts, but to reveal the fallible humanity of the antihero hidden behind the mask of the superman.
