Filippo Feel Cavalca Launches Act One Night Series in New York
Italian filmmaker and musician Filippo Feel Cavalca (Parma, 1983), who moved to New York in 2015, has launched Act One, a series of entertainment nights aimed at fostering cross-disciplinary artistic projects. Through his production company Feel For Films, based in the East Village, Cavalca seeks to revive the factory model by bringing together video, photography, and music professionals. The initiative creates opportunities for interaction among New York's diverse artists, with each event held at a different venue focused on performative and exhibition arts. Cavalca's music video for Tony Houston, which launched his debut solo album AdorAma, was acquired by Rai Cinema for distribution in Italy, marking the first time the broadcaster purchased rights to a music video.
