  • Alexandre Ottoveggio didn’t go through film school — he learned filmmaking directly on set. At just 17, he stepped into the world of cinema and quickly discovered that the best education came from being there, in the middle of the action. He worked on many international productions, taking on whatever roles were available: helping with casting, translating, setting up equipment, working as a gaffer, or even stepping in as an extra. Each job, no matter how small, taught him something new. Over time, these experiences gave him a deep, practical understanding of how films are made and built the foundation for his own path as a filmmaker.
