DiversaMente: the documentary with Franco Battiato

On the occasion of Franco Battiato's birthday, the singer-songwriter, poet, and composer born on March 23, 1945, a documentary directed by Lorenzo Marinelli, DiversaMente: Un'esistenza Outsider, will be premiered worldwide on YouTube. Together with actor and writer Peppe Lanzetta, the project promotes environmental sustainability, personal and spiritual growth by narrating the courage to make unconventional life choices. The documentary, written and produced by Massimiliano Marcucci and Marco Gentile in collaboration with Napoli Film Industry, relies on the soundtrack by Sound Ciak to tell the stories of extraordinary individuals who have dared to live more responsibly towards the environment. Cristiano, Martha, and Antonio are the protagonists of the documentary DiversaMente, three extremely authentic personalities who have chosen to embark on an eco-sustainable adventure.

Cristiano is a Venetian climber who has abandoned urban life to settle in the midst of nature in Positano, Martha is a dancer who has built a low-impact shelter to pursue her greatest passions, while Antonio is a modern custodian of faith who has created a new green space for the community of believers. Franco Battiato becomes fully involved in the documentary, adding a particular comment that encourages self-reflection: «I can't wait for humanity to evolve.»
