Everyone
harbours a dark secret. But it’s
obvious that Titta Di Girolamo has
more than one. Why else would a fifty-year-old
man from southern Italy choose to
li-ve for eight years in an anonymous
hotel room in an anonymous town in
Switzerland? Eight years of not working,
eight years of silence and cigarettes,
sitting in the lobby or the hotel
bar, elegantly dressed but never allowing
himself any luxuries. A nullifying
routine, he’s constantly waiting
for something daring to happen, but
what will happen? Titta observes.
He apparently has his life completely
under control. He impassively peers
at the life that goes by in front
of him, revealing neither sentiment
nor emotion. Or so it appears…
The Mafia is orderly. Switzerland
is orderly. A hotel is orderly. Titta
Di Girolamo lives inside the cage
of these three coordinates. He can
be nothing but an orderly man. In
situations like these the king of
disorder turns up: love. But for someone
crushed by order, even less would
be enough. Even just the “possibility”
of love could completely explode the
cage.

Paolo
Sorrentino Born in Naples
in 1970. Has been writing to cinema
and television. In 1998 he made his
first film.
“I
imagined a character with a life stolen
from someone else. Literally a stolen
life. Thus incarnating a suspicion that
at times hovers in all of us: our life
was stolen by someone or something.
Yet our life at times seems different
to the one we thought we were living.”
