  • What a lovely, pure spirit lives in Gianni. Thank you for sharing your world. Thanks Lina. It's a beautiful movie

  • beautiful poetic video from a magical garden - wish this would go on forever - love & peace to you Gianni & your animal friends!!

  • Lovely man.

  • Just this minute finished the book Vali Myers - A MEMOIR - by Gianni

    Having been interested in the legend that is Vali I am so pleased to read how lovingly and loyally Gianni tells his story of their life together and apart . I sincerely hope that his wish to hear more about her life when she lived in Australia is realized

    He would love to know what she did there and with whom -and so would WE!

    What a breath of fresh air you are Gianni - I love the way in which you dance! Vya con Vali x

  • I carry the memory of the summer i visited Gianni in 1995. I washed in the waterfall and spent time with Gianni and his good heart, beautiful poetry and all the animals. I still remember the constant sound of the waterfall that washed away the noises in my ears. There are the times when ring him and those sounds - waterfall, animals, stillness, echoes of the valley are all there.  Gianni does have Vali's blood in his veins they are twin souls. He is my dear friend.

  • Thanks for all the great posts! Gianni goes into the village to read them, and they really lift his spirits. You can see more of Gianni's art and read more of his poetry on his website. Just Google Gianni Menichetti, and you will find it. Anyone wanting to order a print of his art, or a book of his poetry can do so via his website too.

  • Shalom Lina, I love it! What an amazing man, what great camera work! Regards, Paul

  • great

  • A very lovely film Lina what a great place to be and I love the dogs but I can see the cats point of view.

  • Hi Gianni, Lina and Danny have shown mw photos of your beautiful home but it was great to see it come alive in the video. I love you art especially the drawing of Jiffy. Thank you, Tony.

  • Hello Gianni, it's good to see you in motion...I've seen only still photos of you. From the small glimpse in this sweet little video it appears that the house and grounds are somewhat the same, only more refined, than when Sheldon and I made the movie Vali in --'65-'66? --which movie I fear is lost and this is quite sad, for me and for anyone else interested in that time in Vali's life...before you entered it. Are the animals that we knew then all dead? Ramona the pig , Fabry, Hasan the horse ?

  • Beautiful video and great subject matter...well done!!!

  • Very nice film. I wish it was longer so I could see the whole valley!! Beautiful to have everything you've wanted....stay safe and well in your valley...

  • beautifully made video, very well made. I'm very proud of you Gianni!

  • Very nicely done, videography, still photography, sound and scripting all technically sound and enlightening. You have improved significantly in your productions. I have always admired your intuitive inspiration and your presentation. You are definitely expanding the media of your art and continue to be one of my favorites. You broaden my horizons. It's also good to see Danny participating in a more public manner. Well done! Lori

  • Beautiful film, beautiful place. Very well done, Lina, and extremely generous to give so much of your time and your creativity to another artist.

    One thing that I do find strange, though, is that Gianni has so many dogs. I don't think this is in keeping with ideals of ecology and balance. If I was "Jiffy", the cat, I'd not hang about on the ground for long, either, with that many dogs around.

    Thank you for sharing your film. I enjoyed it.

  • An amazing film, amazing man and amazing place. I loved it.

  • ty for sharing this i checked out his website i love the art .. also nice to see your face again lina!

  • Beautiul video Lina amd Danny, Thank God for artistic souls such as Gianni who have the courage to follow the strength of their convictions. They help us to realise how far we can stray from the appreciation of the miracle of nature. You will learn more from people like Gianni than you ever will from an army of environmental scientists.

  • Lina and Danny...you both captured the soul of this amazing subject! Lina, you insight is remarkable, awesome, inspiring. Thank you for sharing this...Wonderful!

  • A beautiful capture of a free spirited creative artist and his current life.

  • Yeah really beautiful, I especially like the dancing part.

    Love, Marco

  • Extremely Inspirational Story Telling of Life in Action. You are a great filmmaker in this age! I'm already looking forward to your next video!!!

    Living Love, Starr*

  • Beautiful filmaking, editing style beautiful , merging images add to the essence of the story without it being too long...our lives are so enriched when sharing our story in this way ..thank-you

  • beautiful film making, editing style,the merging, enhances the essence of the story without it being too long. How rich is life when a story is shared

  • I tried to give this a 5 star rating, but the mouse had other ideas. I tried again.  well done

  • That's beautiful. you've captured the essence of his life there. On full screen the quality is very good, and it made me feel like I'd like to meet him. If only we all shared the love of beautiful places for what they are, not just what they can earn!

  • That was very well done and an awesome insight into this compelling character and his life.

  • Gianni's story is now beautifully told for all to behold

    Thank you Lina!

  • Amazing look into the life of Gianni ... and a loving tribute to dear Vali .... more, please! Celeste Billhartz

  • What a wonderful window into this unique environment and person! Thank you for doing this, Lina. I am sending my very best wishes to Gianni.

  • I completely got chills watching this. It is so beautifully made... Completely artistic, reflecting not only the incredible landscape, the intriguing subject, but the videographer's sensitivity and techinical expertise. Thanks, Lina, for the hard work and creativity that went into making this perfect glimpse into a lovely world.
