So, I'm sorry I don't speak English. Thank you for this great honor. Thank you for my producer Gianni Minervini, and Penta, Vittorio Cecchi Gori. Thanks for all the people who make the movie. And an invitation: Please make—no. Do as like the soldier of "Mediterraneo," please stop the wars. Life is better. Thank you. Thank you very much.
