Lavinia sent me a message in which she asked if I was interested in doing this specific project. It was a videoclip shoot. But it was unlike any other shoot I had ever take part in.
I said,
Yes. But who’s the other guy?
She replicated,
Do you prefer choosing someone you know for the job?
I thought,
hell no.
What to do. What to do.
She sent me his facebook profile and I saw he’s a professional actor. I thought,
Well, if he’s a professional it should work. If he’s not a weirdo, I mean.
What to do. What to do. And before I could rationalize, the words
Let’s go for it,
came out of my mouth, and at the same time, this pressing thought,
What the hell am I getting myself into?

The shoot was on a Monday. And there was no big talk beforehand. It was a bit like,
Hi, I am Ana, nice to meet you. Should we get undressed?
We spent around three hours on set, moving to the sound of some whimsical song.
During the break Letizia asked,
Are you sure you guys didn’t know each other beforehand?
We didn’t.
Oftentimes I become very happy for getting myself into things out of an impulse. In the end of the day those things become my favorite.
