«Where I come from, there is a saying: ‘Never complain about the fatty broth’». Luciano Ligabue, who will preview the short film at the Rome Film Fest Rock’n’roll dreams, he says it genuinely, without embracing the rhetorical impetus that often accompanies the story of fame. «Notoriety has many positive sides, but in the story of my thirty years of career I wanted to bring the shadows »: those dark areas in which the boundary between famous and not famous inevitably blurs.
Ligabue, who presented on Monday morning That’s how it went, docuseries available on RaiPlay from midnight on 12 October, made specific hints. “I’ve had three major professional crises. In one, the second, I had decided to retire. To these moments, I have dedicated an entire episode of the series ”, which in total has seven.
The episodes, directed by Duccio Forzano, have nothing of fiction. Rather, they are spontaneous conversations between Ligabue and a friend, Stefano Accorsi. «The goal is to tell Luciano beyond Ligabue, and with a journalist in front of him it would not have been easy, especially for me. I come from a definite school of thought, one that says songs should speak for themselves. Rationally, however, I know that this school of thought has something of a coward and, from time to time, you have to expose yourself ». Change the narrative that is associated with us. “Over the years, there are three, four adjectives that have been given to me. One of these is “confidential”. I wanted to make an episode to disprove this description of mine “, explained Ligabue, who in the Rai docuseries has focused his gaze on his own beginnings, on the explosion of his career, on mourning and professional crises, on the public (” Che è non ” mio ”as we say»), on testimonies of friends and colleagues, from Elisa Toffoli to Francesco De Gregori.
“To give me a first input, it was the Coronavirus, that terrible plague that took away tomorrow from us. Then, we were forced to look back and I, almost, was amazed to remember everything that was there. I was proud: records, books, films, a collection of poems. This profession is full of emotional stresses, and it would be absurd if nothing had changed. So, I decided to celebrate these first thirty years with a different story from the one that has accompanied me so far. How it would have gone if it hadn’t, is hard to say. Probably, I would have changed many jobs, just as I did before I was successful », Ligabue continued, saying he was open to the future. A still uncertain future, where the only fixed points remain “The great party I should have had in 2020, in Campovolo” and, it seems, a new project with Stefano Accorsi. “But we can’t talk about it yet.”
