NOÈ: in water, I am.

Last night (Wednesday, September 25), in the packed main hall of the Palacinema in Locarno, I attended the premiere of the documentary "NOÈ. In water, I am." I would like to thank RSI for telling this story. In particular, I thank Ellade Ossola and Gianmario (Jimmy) Reycend, who followed me for over a year in both distant and nearby places, documenting my journey towards the Paris Olympics, and capturing aspects of my life, present and past, revealing various facets of my personality and moods. I greatly appreciated their professionalism and sensitivity. The editing work by Alberto Bernad in collaboration with Jimmy was also remarkable. I can assure you that the documentary deeply engaged and moved the large audience present. Special thanks also to Banca Stato for organizing this public event in collaboration with RSI. Of course, thanks to everyone who attended in Locarno, with a special thought to the various sponsors who always support me affectionately and contribute significantly to my career. For those who couldn't be there on Wednesday night, you can experience some of the emotions we felt at Palacinema by watching the documentary on Sunday, September 29, on "Storie," RSI La1, at 8:40 PM.
