IF I WERE YOU (I ACTUALLY AM)

Silvia & Massimo celebrate their private marriage. Then they get off their clothes and wear 3 paper masks (head, breast, pubis). Silvia becomes Massimo and Massimo becomes Silvia. Then they move and dance up and down on a stair. It's their nonbinary marriage. After, they have sex. While the movie goes on, Silvia's voice-off tells about their experience with faith, God and being queer and how they came to reconcile all of these topics.

CAST: Silvia Marcantoni Taddei & Massimo Sannelli

Silvia Marcantoni Taddei (November 26, 1994) is a multimedia/multidisciplinary artist. In 2019 she launched the project AnimaeNoctis with her husband Massimo Sannelli (November 27, 1973): a roaming duo dealing with post-porn art, filmmaking, photography + modeling, e-publishing, video/dance, video/performance, music. Silvia decided to change her life after years of severe depression, anxiety and eating disorder + a school education/qualification that didn’t fit her tendency to be polymorphous, both as a nonbinary person and as an artist. She is multimedia in order not to be unimedia. Silvia’s porn art is a dappled set of explicit documentaries: there’s nothing but real sex life.
