Luigi Zanuso is an Italian filmmaker renowned for his provocative and experimental style, blending elements of pornography, surrealism, and philosophy. Born in Vicenza, Italy, Zanuso began his cinematic journey later in life, initially working as a video store owner before transitioning into directing, producing, acting, and talent scouting within the Italian erotic film scene only at 60 years old. Operating under various pseudonyms, including Luigi Atomico, Dario Lussuria, and Rodolfo Babilonia, Zanuso developed a unique approach to filmmaking that he describes as "crazy surrealism." His works are characterized by their transgressive nature and philosophical undertones, challenging conventional narratives and aesthetics. Among his notable films is "Futurus - Robot contro uomini" (2019), a science fiction piece exploring themes of humanity and technology. Another significant work is "Oltre la follia" (2016), also known as "Beyond Madness", which delves into the surreal and the grotesque, reflecting his distinctive cinematic vision. In 2024, Zanuso published his autobiography, "Oltre la follia. Dal porno al surrealismo fino a Socrate", co-written with Nico Parente. The book offers an unfiltered look into his unconventional career and artistic philosophy, solidifying his status as a cult figure in underground and experimental cinema.
