In our next episode of 'The Livestream of Consciousness,' we have the privilege of hosting Stefano Da Frè, a remarkable Italian-born Canadian actor, director, and producer. Stefano's journey in the world of film has left an indelible mark, and he's the co-founder and president of Rosso Films International, a testament to his dedication to storytelling.

Join us as we explore the depths of consciousness through the lens of cinema. Stefano is best known for his exceptional documentaries, 'The Girl Who Cannot Speak' and 'The Day I Had to Grow Up,' both of which have been screened at prestigious film festivals, including the Cannes Film Festival and the Chelsea Film Festival in New York.

Stefano's early life and education, his role in films like 'Taking Woodstock' directed by Ang Lee, his television appearances in series such as 'Law & Order: Criminal Intent,' and his contributions to the Montreal International Film Festival highlight the diverse facets of his career.

His documentary 'The Girl Who Cannot Speak' offers a powerful exploration of sexual abuse narratives in the MeToo movement, and 'The Day I Had to Grow Up' addresses critical issues like gun violence and climate change through the lens of U.S. youth activism.

Join us for an insightful discussion with Stefano as we delve into his incredible journey in the world of cinema, the impact of his documentaries, and his recent project, 'Stolen Dough,' which won the Best Documentary Award at the Athens International Monthly Art Film Festival in 2023. Don't miss this opportunity to engage with a filmmaker who has both informed and inspired through his work.
