THE VIDEO MESSAGE FROM NANDO PAONE, WINNER OF THE AWARD FOR BEST ACTOR FOR “THE FINCH THIEF”
The prize for Best Actor goes to the Italian Nando Paone for Il ladro di Cardellini by Carlo Luglio. Paone plays the role of an old ranger who spends his days between alcohol and video poker, in the countryside of the Campania region in southern Italy. To pay off his debts, he organizes a scam with 200 purebred white goldfinches, replacing them with normal goldfinches. But his plan will not go as planned.
