Director Cosima Spender emphasized her aim to evoke the very atmosphere of Bocelli's world, allowing audiences to feel how music permeates every moment of his life and to witness his undeniable optimism. Veronica Berti and Francesco Pasquero, Bocelli’s co-managers, expressed their desire for the world to meet "the real Andrea," beyond his global icon status.
