“Io non ho paura” is the title of the video clip in which the actress Loredana Simioli recounts her personal experience of fighting cancer. Loredana will present it tomorrow, Monday 29 October at 11.00:XNUMX, in the Mediterranean Hall of the Cardarelli Hospital. The actress directed and created the video clip inside the Cardarelli, in the context of her illness which is unfortunately still ongoing. The aim of the actress is to give all those who are living the same experience as her a message of hope, of encouragement not to give up in the face of such a strong and difficult illness as cancer and to never lose hope and the joy of living. The style of the video, the artistic choices, the lightness of the story are intentional, almost to represent a cathartic force that reverses the power game between the patient and the illness; in which the patient makes fun of the illness itself because, even if he does not recover, he takes control of it by defending the beauty of his own life against the destructive force of the pathology. Here then is the irony, the colors, the music: all aimed at affirming the strength to live and one's will over everything else and over the possibility, sometimes conviction, to win and heal. The choice of location was almost obligatory for two reasons: first because the Cardarelli is the facility that welcomed her and is accompanying her in the treatment process; secondly, a good part of the extras who participated in the video do nothing more than interpret what they actually do in their working life but with a pinch of fun.
