In a significant move for the Italian entertainment industry, I Wonder Pictures, a leading independent distribution company, is expanding its operations and introducing AI-powered content creation.

Under Pisoni's leadership, I Wonder Pictures aims to integrate AI into its creative and production processes, exploring new narrative and productive models that combine cinema, documentary filmmaking, and emerging media formats.
