Claudio Marino states that "Cold Void" is a film for anyone interested in life stories, and was not made with the intention of pandering to SHINING's fans. It is very much a personal journey, bringing a much-needed clarity and lack of sensationalism to the subject of Niklas Kvarforth.
He also comments: "I've known about Niklas and his music for a long time. His story interested me and I wanted to know more about him as a person. I did some research and we got in contact. I showed him my documentary trilogy 'Blood and Spirit' and he was interested in working with me. We got along from the start and he proved to be very cooperative. He was brutally honest, and never left any of my questions unanswered."
Claudio Marino is known for his documentary "Blood and Spirit", a trilogy about three different artists who live for their art, a tattoo artist, an mixed martial arts fighter, and a Satanist, who happened to be Erik Danielsson from WATAIN.
These were shipped to us unknowignly without dvd cases, so until we can order or find some empty cases locally, these will ship without the plastic casing.
