D’Innocenzo Brothers Talk Crime Series ‘Dostoevskij’ and Working With Kanye West on ‘Talking/Once Again’ Music Video: ‘We Wanted to Leave Stardom Out of It’


D’Innocenzo Brothers' on crime series ‘Dostoevskij’ and working with Kanye West on the music video for 'Talking/Once Again.'

Twin directors Damiano and Fabio D’Innocenzo, who are known to Berlin Film Festival audiences for stylishly gritty dramas “Boys Cry” and “Bad Tales,” are back with eclectic detective series “Dostoevskij,” premiering in the fest’s Berlinale Special section. Set in the stark Roman hinterland, the six-episode show — produced by Sky Studios with Rome’s Paco Cinematografica — stars Filippo Timi (“Vincere,” “The Eight Mountains”) as Enzo Vitello, a policeman whose mind is warped by an incident involving his daughter Ambra. “Dostoevskij,” which marks the D’Innocenzo brothers’ TV debut, stemmed from Sky Studios Italia chief Nils Hartmann asking them if they wanted to create a show and giving them carte blanche from a narrative standpoint.
