About
My name is Davide Rinaldi, an Italian videomaker and documentary filmmaker.
I was born in Naples in 1982.
As a director, I have worked on the following projects:
- 5 TV documentary series titled "ITALIE INVISIBILI" (known internationally as HIDE ITALY), consisting of 22 episodes, each 25 minutes long, for the SKY ARTE network.
- 3 TV documentary series titled "GENERAZIONE BELLEZZA," comprising 35 episodes, each 25 minutes long, for the RAI TRE network (Italian national television).
- For the series "IL FATTORE UMANO" (The Human Factor), I directed 2 episodes lasting 45 minutes, including "BORDERLINE" (about migrants at the border between the USA and Mexico, featuring an exclusive interview with the director Alejandro González Iñárritu) and the episode "THE WALL OF SHAME" about the dividing wall in Lima, Peru, which segregates the wealthiest and poorest areas of the city.
I have also worked as a videomaker for Italian television RAI on:
RAI CULTURA & UNESCO, creating 10 video clips for Italian Heritage UNESCO sites.
"REPORT", Italy's most-watched investigative journalism program, for 3 years.
"SAPIENS", a prime-time program on climate change, for 3 years.
My passions are: surf rock music, 1960s and 1970s Fellini films, medieval and Renaissance art, saints and portraits, ultra-wide-angle photography, and caricatures.
I enjoy adding a touch of magic to the truth, capturing genuine faces and exploring unknown places. I always seek to infuse poetry even into the most concrete of projects.
I currently reside in the hills near Rome, in the Castelli Romani region.
