About Marco Tullio Barboni Barboni comes from a family of “filmmakers” (His uncle Leonida was a talented director of photography and his father Enzo went from camera operator to director of photography, and finally to director, working under the screen name of E.B. Clucher). n 1981, he started writing synopses and screenplays under his own name, first for T.O.T.A. (in which case he oversaw the entire process, from initial concept to mixing), and later for a number of other productions. After having written around 50 films and TV episodes, the desire to tackle new themes and have complete professional freedom led him to get into freelance directing. In 2016 he published his first book "...e lo chiamerai destino" ("...and you will call it fate"), followed by the second one in 2017, "A spasso con il mago - Merlino e io"
