Pif (Pierfrancesco Diliberto) was born in Palermo in 1972. He was correspondent and author for the elevision programme Le iene and Mtv’s Il testimone (“The witness”). After being Marco Tullio Giordana’s assistant director for I cento passi (One Hundred Steps, 2000), he directed La mafia uccide solo d’estate (The Mafia Kills Only in Summer, 2013), which earned him two David di Donatello awards, including one for best first-time director, and a European Film award for best comedy. Then came In guerra per amore (At War with Love, 2016) and E noi come stronzi rimanemmo a guardare (On Our Watch, 2021). With Feltrinelli he published ...che Dio perdona a tutti (“…That God Forgives Everybody”, 2018), Io posso (“I can”, 2021), co-written with Marco Lillo, and the novel La disperata ricerca d’amore di un povero idiota (“A Poor Idiot’s Desperate Search For Love”, 2022).
