I NEED MY SELF

As a child, Paola Valeria Jovinelli wanted to become an actress and a dancer. At some point, she found herself working in her family’s business in the oil industry. After illnesses, accidents and numerous adventures, she returned to a starting point and realized that there is no other creator of our destiny, but ourselves! The documentary that explores her life unfolds in five sections, just like the elements of nature; water, fire, earth, air and space. Venice, Bergamo, Milan and Sifnos serve as the connecting links in her story.
