At 2024’s Vaughan International Film Festival (VFF), I had the pleasure of interviewing renowned filmmaker Luigi Di Fiore. He has always had a unique way of capturing the human condition on screen, and his latest film, Shooting Watermelons, is no exception. Shot in Italy, the movie, which was nominated for best film at the festival, captures Di Fiore’s ability for cinematic storytelling. Combining rich visual artistry with thought-provoking narratives, Di Fiore once again delivers a masterpiece that challenges and moves the audience. Shooting Watermelons, is a moving exploration of identity, resilience, and perspective. We discuss the story which follows lead Marco, a struggling artist who discovers an abandoned farm and begins photographing watermelons with a vintage camera. Each watermelon represents a fragment of Marco’s psyche—fragile yet full of potential—as he processes past traumas and reclaims his dreams. We also talk about Di Fiore’s direction, and his blending of poetic visuals with vibrant colors that highlight the film’s themes of hope and transformation. The luminous shots of sunlit fields and dramatic shadows mirror Marco’s inner struggles, while the actors raw vulnerability, bring the story to life. Beyond its artistic beauty, Shooting Watermelons resonates with universal truths about overcoming adversity and finding unexpected beauty. Di Fiore shares how he was able to balance introspection with humor, crafting a film that is as entertaining as it is profound.
