Arrow - the Documentary 

Filmmaker Notes & Artistic Direction

"This documentary project is part of a national documentary series about people doing good in their state, originally created by a company out of New York called Radical Media. This is not just a scene—it is the complete film. I wrote, directed, shot, and edited each film.

The vision for this film is as powerful as it is simple. This short documentary is an exceptional, deeply moving statement focusing on the raw, unfiltered beauty of the human spirit overcoming adversity. The title comes from the name of the featured subject of the film, also the Co-Director, William Howard (better known as Arrow). In the film, Arrow states, “My name is Arrow. And I’m moving forward. And my target is love.”

In the words of the filmmaker, “There is an energy to each person and each place. You just have to be open to it. Then you just let the magic of that energy guide you." — Alessandro V. Andriulli, Award-Winning Director.
